Hold a sports day
Some of our most popular fundraisers are bowls days, golf days, football days and tennis tournaments. But don’t let that limit you. Why not host a dog race, paintball tournament or rock climb?
You can turn it into a fundraiser by selling entry tickets, putting on a barbecue, charging for lunch or drinks, or sourcing prizes from local businesses and selling them off. Get your local sporting club involved for maximum participation.
Butler Family Soccer Day
Meet the Butler family: 3 generations whose lives have been affected by cancer.
After losing their grandparents to cancer and having many cancer survivors in their family, the Butlers decided to take action.
They created a soccer team and challenged Woy Woy FC to a pre-season game at Austin Butler Memorial Oval, which is named after their grandfather.
“Not only was this an opportunity for the first and reserve grade teams to play a pre-season game, but it was also a fantastic way to raise money to help all those affected by cancer. We had a ball,” they told us.
The Butler Family raised over $2,500!
