Throughout the year, The HOPE Fund hosts annual fundraising events for our supporters, whether patients, partners, researchers or surgeons, and our wider network. There are many opportunities to get involved, please get in touch if you would like to find out more about our fundraising events or partnerships.
A NIGHT OF HOPE
On April 27th 2024 over 300 guests were invited to step into the glitz and glamour of Old Hollywood at the Plaza Ballroom Melbourne.
Our dazzling Fundraising Gala dedicated to conquering hepatobiliary diseases, all while embracing the timeless allure of Old Hollywood was a huge success!
We want to pass on our deepest gratitude to everyone for the unwavering support and generous contributions to our Night of HOPE.
To all our guests, volunteers, sponsors, and donors: your presence and contributions made the night truly special.
Get ready for an even bigger and better gala in 2025! We're already hard at work planning an unforgettable event, and we can't wait to share the details with you soon.
Below are some of our previous events
TWILIGHT at CRANLANA
Guests were invited to join us for a rare opportunity to celebrate The HOPE Fund on a lovely Spring evening at Cranlana House and Garden in November.
