Ray White BELLissimo Charity Lunch – October

Hosted by brothers Greg and Andrew Bell of the Ray White Bell Group, the Muscular Dystrophy Charity Event has been a Gold Coast social institution since 1993.

Now reimagined as BELLIssimo: Euro Summer Vibes at the Pool Club, the event continues its proud tradition of purpose and celebration. More than $3 million has been raised across its history, funding Muscular Dystrophy Queensland’s vital client services and contributing to research that brings hope for a future without neuromuscular conditions.

Red Bow Month – March

Across the state, we celebrate Red Bow Month throughout March to increase community awareness and raise funds to help continuously improve vital services for people living with neuromuscular conditions.

One highlight of the month is Red Bow Day, established in 1994, with Year 11 students of All Hallows’ School converging on Brisbane CBD for two hours before classes begin to collect donations.

You can join the fun by fundraising any day or for the month in March. Create your own Red Bow activity and encourage your friends and workplace to fundraise with you.
