Join us for an evening of purpose, connection, and celebration at the Western Chances 21st Anniversary Gala

In 2003, Terry Bracks AM, founded Western Chances with a clear vision. Every young person deserves the chance to complete their education and fulfil their potential.

Now turning 21, The Western Chances 21st Anniversary Gala acknowledges and celebrates this milestone and honours the 4,067 young people we have empowered along our journey.

Held at the prestigious Melbourne Town Hall, the evening will feature:

Keynote session: Hear from our Patron, The Hon. Julia Gillard AC
Community: Be inspired by our scholarship recipients and alumni sharing their stories
Gourmet Dining: Indulge in a three-course dinner and beverage package
Entertainment: Enjoy live performances from our talented cohort of alumni
Prizes: There will be raffle for a brand new car, and a silent auction.
Dress-code: Formal.

This Gala is our signature fundraising event of the year. Your attendance will play a vital role in supporting our Scholarship Program, empowering young people with educational scholarships, access to opportunity programs, and ongoing support.

We encourage everyone in the Western Chances community - past and present - to celebrate with us.
