Some ideas to get you excited
Bake Sale
If you’re a whiz in the kitchen, organise a bake sale or just have your friends over for afternoon tea and ask for donations – it’s a meaningful way to share laughs and raise money.
Decade Theme Party
Are you a 60s rocker or a 90s pop addict? To host a fundraiser with a twist, choose your decade, dress up, blast your favourite tunes and start grooving. Charge an entry fee, have a dance contest and organise a prize for best dressed!
Trivia Night
If you love your local quiz night, why not organise one of your own? Get some friendly rivalry going between your friends, school groups and work mates. Ask local businesses to donate prizing or host the event.

Victoria’s meaningful moment
After seeing friends and family struggle with their mental health, Victoria not only wanted to raise money for the Black Dog Institute but send the message that reaching out for help is okay.
Victoria and her peers at university teamed up to organise a local Drag Trivia Night.
“My hope for the future of mental health is to increase awareness that it is okay for people to reach out for the help they need.”
“Having the opportunity to fundraise is such a rewarding and fun experience.”
“I was lucky enough to have a group of amazing people so that we could all work together and plan such an amazing night to fundraise for BDI.”
