The Fraser Foundation Annual Charity Luncheon
Every year, the early childhood community and the Gold Coast business world get together over lunch for one reason: to create more early childhood teachers. It’s our flagship fundraising event, and it’s a good one — great food, great company, and every seat sold goes towards scholarships that put qualified educators in front of the children who need them.
2026 Event Details
Friday 16 October 2026
11:30am – 3:30pm AEST
The Glasshouse, The Island Gold Coast, Surfers Paradise QLD
We’ve moved to a bigger room this year because last year we couldn’t fit everyone who wanted to come. Get in early — seats go fast.
What to expect
A warm welcome, a beautiful long lunch, and a room full of people who care about early childhood. You’ll hear from the Foundation about the year’s impact and, most movingly, from scholarship recipients themselves about what your support has meant. There’s usually a bit of fundraising fun on the day too. You’ll leave having had a genuinely lovely afternoon — and having helped train Australia’s next generation of teachers.
