Dads Dinner with Dipper

August 5, 2024

The annual Fairholme Fathers’ Dinner was all about good food, great company, and an even greater purpose — supporting our community

The recent annual Fathers’ Dinner was a resounding success, marked by an evening filled with generosity, and

community spirit.


This year, the event raised a record-breaking amount of money, thanks to the generosity of donors and the enthusiastic participation in the raffle.


These funds will significantly enhance our ability to support Fairholme families in crisis and increase our contributions to the Black Dog Institute, a leading organisation in mental health research and support.


A special acknowledgment goes to Tony Davey from The Davey Group and Jeff Schultheiss from Smoke Haus, whose sponsorship played a crucial role in the event’s success.


Their continued support and dedication are greatly appreciated.
