EVENT
DESCRIPTION
The
highly anticipated SA4SA Bushfire Appeal Gala Dinner is set for
Friday 31 January with tickets on sale now.
Announcing
a fundraising target of more than $100,000 to assist families and
businesses affected by the horrific South
Australian bushfires, the event will be donating all profits from
the gala to the official SA Bushfire Appeal.
The
Appeal has been set up to raise funds for people directly affected by
bushfires across South Australia, from November 2019 onwards,
including Kangaroo Island and Cudlee Creek.
Every
dollar donated to the SA Bushfire Appeal will go directly to those
impacted by the fires, with the SA Government to absorb all
administration costs.
Premier
Steven Marshall said that the entire South Australian community
stands shoulder to shoulder with those affected by these devastating
bushfires.
“The
sheer generosity shown by South Australians is an inspiration, with
every dollar raised going directly to the many families and
communities who need it most,” said Premier Marshall.
“Despite
the tragic circumstances, there is a strong determination to recover
and rebuild, and the SA4SA Bushfire Appeal Gala is another great
example of our community spirit.
Set
at the Adelaide Convention Centre, the black-tie Gala is set to be a
night to remember.
The
event will host between 500-1000 guests, with organisers pulling
together an unforgettable night celebrating our True-Blue Aussie
Spirit.
Guests
will: hear stories of tragedy and triumph with communities coming
together to overcome unfathomable adversity; enjoy a stellar
entertainment line-up throughout the night; taste a delicious
three-course
menu celebrating
SA produce matched with SA wines; and have the opportunity to
purchase and win some incredible prizes that have been flooding in
from corporates and local businesses alike through raffles and
auctions on the night.
Kelly
Noble, Spokesperson for the Gala and Co-Founder of Showcase South
Australia said that it has been bittersweet organising this event
alongside driving a bushfire communications hub for resources and
updates through her sister business, Glam Adelaide.
“We
have had overwhelming feedback from the community wanting to help or
get involved in some way – it has been incredibly humbling to be at
the coalface
of people’s generosity at such a time of need – these people are
really hurting and we hope we can make a difference. Let’s not
forget that as
those first hit by these bushfires start their clean up, the rest of
the state braces for a dangerous fire season ahead. This isn’t
over,”
she said.
Steve Testar, co-founder of Showcase SA, said he was overwhelmed with the response from South Australian businesses who have already thrown their support behind the event.
“It’s
fantastic to see South Australians rally together in what’s been a
devastating and difficult time,” he said. “Events like this
couldn’t happen without the support
of some generous local businesses.”
Glam
Adelaide and Showcase SA are proud to be underpinning the event, and
have been using their corporate and community networks since December
20th
to help drive support to those affected by the fires.
Media
partners supporting the SA4SA Bushfire Appeal Gala include Seven, Southern Cross Austereo (Triple M and Hit107), and Fresh 927.
“We
are so grateful to every business who has got involved,
in particular the team of specialised suppliers,
and the event committee who have volunteered their services and are
working tirelessly behind the scenes to make this event happen,”
Noble said.
