Fireworks

The annual Northbridge Fireworks has been held for over 30 years and is Northbridge Rotary’s major fundraising event. Supported by key sponsors including Northbridge Plaza, a combination of entertainment, food, amusement rides attracts over 4000 community members and achieves fundraising of approx $50,000 p.a
Comedy for a Cause

Fot many years, Northbridge Rotary ave combined with Comedy for a Cause, held at the Northbridge Golf Club. A riotous, adults only, evening, this event connects us with a broader part of our community, whilst raising money for our Charitable causes. The night has been sold out in each of the past two years!
Raffles and Lotteries

For many years, Northbridge Rotary has, with the support of Northbridge Plaza, conducted a Mothers Day Raffle and a Christmas Raffle. With a multitude of prizes on offer, the Raffles each contribute around $5000 to our charitable efforts. In 2024 we are also conducting a $10,000 Super Lottery, to be drawn June 18.

Northbridge Golf Day
Now in its 15th year, our great friends at Northbridge Golf Club facilitate a Rotary Golf Day where a part of each players registration is donated to Rotary causes, and where prizes are available for nearest the pin, longest drive, etc. Similar one-off events are also held in times of crisis, for example following the bushfires of early 2020, where proceeds were directed to BlazeAid. Fundraising is usually around $5,000

Bunnings BBQs
Northbridge Rotary members are unashamably expert at a sausage sizzle. Regularly seen at Bunnings Chatswood, provided sustenance to hungry families and tradies, each event generates around $2,500 of net funding for our charitable works. Given our expertise in logistics, ordering and our friendly customer service, the Club is often asked to help out with similar BBQ’s for other community groups.
NRL Footy Tipping

For many years, Northbridge Rotary has run a footy tipping competition, on the basis that participants make a donation and half of the donation is then split as prize money at the end of the season. The other half (around $500) is donated to our Charities account. In 2020, the competition transitioned from Rugby Union to League, and with the benefit of technology the competition was opened to Friends of Rotary.
Trivia with a Difference

An innovation in 2023, Rotary Northbridge hosted a Quiz Night with a Difference, combining musical theatre, trivia and some live(ish) performances. Expected to become an annual event in our calendar, the night raised around $4000 for our charitable causes
