Melbourne Cup Carnival - Event Day Volunteers
Australian Childhood Foundation is proud to announce we are Victoria Racing Club’s (VRC) Pin & Win charity partner for 2023. Pin & Win is VRC’s major annual fundraising program, an initiative to give charities the platform to raise funds through the sale of Lexus Melbourne Cup souvenir pins. Purchasing a pin enters the individual into the draw to win a Lexus plus additional great prizes. Event Day Volunteers will be responsible for selling the majority of the pins at Flemington Racecourse, throughout the Melbourne Cup Carnival.
By donating your time and energy you’ll be helping us support children, young people, and their families as they recover from the trauma of abuse and family violence.
The money raised from the Pin & Win partnership will support Australian Childhood Foundation’s National Trauma Recovery Program.
All volunteers will receive free entry to event days and catering throughout the day.
Please note, this volunteer role will not be working directly with children.
