Parramatta Mission will be hosting its Inaugural Rich Person/Poor Person Fundraising Dinner. This event is an opportunity for us to put ourselves in the shoes of those experiencing homelessness and disadvantaged during the current cost of living crisis and to better understand the challenges they face.

Attendees will be seated at tables of eight, with one person served what we call a "Rich Person's" meal while the other seven individuals will be served a "Poor Person's" meal. The decision on who receives which meal is based purely on chance.

In addition to the dinner, there will be a silent auction where the winners will be announced at the end of the evening. All funds raised will go towards the activities of Parramatta Mission which is an entirely self-funded organisation.

In hosting this event, we are hoping to not only raise funds for a worthwhile cause but also to raise awareness about homelessness, domestic violence and the most vulnerable and disadvantaged in our communities. We aim to inspire dialogue, a new way of thinking, and constructive action.

If you would like to go one step-further and create a larger ever-lasting impact, then please do reach out to Davyn on davyn.debruyn@parramattamission.org.au to seek Sponsorship of the event!
