To support Victorian ELCs and Schools, a limited number of free “Fundraiser Social” nights are now available to book on select evenings throughout the year.
These events have no upfront costs and provide a super fun MoPA-hosted social experience for your families.
Fundraiser Socials require minimal effort on your part but provide a nice boost to your fundraising efforts without interrupting any other planned activities. We also have EFTPOS facilities available if you’re planning a raffle or a silent auction!
