Fundraise for us
If you're thinking about organising your own fundraising event, we'd love to be a part of it! By raising funds for the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute, you’re helping us move towards a tomorrow where people don’t have to die from heart disease.
Fundraising can be a fun and rewarding exercise. The funds you raise will go directly to heart research. You’ll be helping the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute continue its world-class research into heart disease, the most deadly disease around the globe.
Fundraising Events - How to Register
Each individual or fundraising group must register their event with the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute. You will then be provided with a letter of 'Authority to Fundraise' on our behalf. Please provide the following details in writing:

What is the name of your event? What type of fundraiser will you hold?
For example: A trivia night, morning tea, luncheon, mufti day, sports event, car wash or fete.
- WHEN?
When are you planning on holding your event? Make sure it doesn’t conflict with any other fundraising activities or clash with local events.
- ACTIVITIES?
Let us know all the exciting activities you have planned for the fundraiser. Will you be having a raffle draw? A silent auction? A charity sports match?
- FINANCES?
Once you have decided on your fundraiser, please make an estimate of how much money your event will raise.
