Xavier Dinner a Big Success!

The Xavier Dinner claims to be Australia's longest running Charity Stag Dinner (circa 1959). It's a voluntary-based group committed to helping those less fortunate. In its invitation to the $350-a-plate function at the Victoria Park Function Centre at Herston in September 2010, the organisers describe it as "... a way that men in our community can come together and combine their strengths for a worthy cause". Over the years Xavier Dinners have raised more than $3 million for mostly small groups often overlooked by donors.

BrAshA-T was extremely fortunate and very grateful to be selected by the Xavier Board as the main beneficiary at this year's dinner with in excess of $100,000 raised on the night. More...

Family Fun Day

On Sunday the 25th of November 2007, BrAshA-T hosted an awareness and fundraising “Family Fun Day”. As we are a local family from the Brisbane suburb of Bracken Ridge, the Bracken Ridge Lions Club Central kindly sponsored our cause on the day and we are forever grateful for their efforts and generosity.

Thank-you to all of our family, friends and community members who helped run and organise this very successful day. We held a number of events, amusements and fundraising activities including a Sausage Sizzle, jumping castle, raffles, face painting and A-T shirts. Click here to see the photos from the day.

Our intention is to make this an annual event concentrating on children, to be followed by a Fundraising Dinner approx six months later for the adults.
