Help support the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal with a $10 donation and you’ll get a Spin of our Big Appeal Prize Wheel!
For many year’s now Greyhound Racing Victoria and the 13 Victorian Greyhound Clubs they govern have proudly supported the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal. This year GRV and all Clubs will again be collecting and have set ourselves a target of raising $56,000. Up until last years Appeal, $367,000 has been donated by us.
2025 again sees this proud tradition continue. GRV has kicked started their support of the appeal with a massive $10,000 donation, and have further promised dollar-matching the final amounts raised by each local Victorian Greyhound Racing Club.
Help us reach our target
Here at the Melbourne Greyhounds, we’ve set ourselves a target of $5,000 to raise (which will become $10K thanks to GRV if we make it). However, we’re going to need your help and donations to get there. If you’d like to donate to the Appeal you can head online to our Melbourne Greyhounds Meadows Good Friday Appeal Fundraising Page.
Otherwise, if you attend a racing meeting at The Meadows you can donate in person by popping your loose change in the donation cans provided or making an EFT at our reception desk. For those who wish to dig a little deeper and donate $10 we’ll give you a Spin of Big Appeal Prize Wheel. Every spin wins a prize.
The Major Prize on our Big Appeal Wheel 2025 is a:
> A $250 Meadows Venue Voucher.
Additional prizes on the wheel include:
> 2 x $100 Meadows Venue Vouchers
> 2 x $50 Meadows Venue Vouchers
> Caps, Stubby Holders and Beverage Vouchers
Our Appeal Wheel will start spinning this Saturday Night (March 29) and will be available for spinning and winning every Wednesday and Saturday Race meeting up until Saturday April 19. And don’t forget, you can make a donation at any Victoria Greyhound Racing track and support the Appeal – every dollar counts.
