Sponsorship of Events

ANGLICARE is looking for companies who can sponsor our events as a way of raising greatly needed funds to assist those less fortunate within the community. These events also offers companies the opportunity to align their name with one of Australia’s oldest, largest and most respected charities.

Events in 2009

Corporate Fundraising Lunch - A Winter's Tale

Over 200 guests attended A Winter’s Tale corporate lunch which was held on Friday 19 June 2009 at the Amora Jamison Hotel in Sydney.
The guests were a variety of senior executives and managers from the Sydney business community, ANGLICARE’S major donors and business associates.
Our keynote speaker was the Hon John Anderson, former Deputy Prime Minister who spoke of the Christ centred work that ANGLICARE does daily to assist those less fortunate in our society and the need for organisations like ANGLICARE to break the cycle of poverty which many of our clients find themselves in. At the lunch our CEO, Mr Peter Kell launched a 50 page research paper outlining the Sydney Experience of Social Exclusion which our clients face every day.
