Your support makes the difference!
In order to fundraise for PCYC Queensland or any of our clubs and the communities in which we serve, simply contact the Fundraising Team at [email protected]. Businesses, organisations and individuals wanting to fundraise on behalf of PCYC Queensland or one of its clubs require an ‘Authority to Fundraise’ letter from PCYC Queensland.

Contact your local PCYC club about their current fundraising drives
Most of our 56 Queensland clubs run their own regular community fundraising events; from Colour Runs, to Car Shows, Bunnings BBQ’s, Charity Movie Screening Nights, Boxing Fight Nights, Halloween Disco’s as well as Trivia and Bingo events. Get in touch with your local club and ask how you can help by volunteering at or attending one of these family-friendly events and directly support your local community. Each year in July, our clubs also host an Open Day & ‘Come & Try’ event, showcasing all the amazing programs and activities on offer – feel free to drop by and support your local club by purchasing raffle tickets or a tasty snack from their volunteer-run Sausage Sizzle.
Celebrate with PCYC Queensland
If you have all that you need, consider collecting donations in lieu of gifts for your next celebration.
Donations in lieu of a gift can be applied to almost any event or celebration – birthdays, christenings, graduations, anniversaries, weddings – and is simple to arrange. No matter the occasion, your fundraising will make a real difference to young people in Queensland by providing them with access to life-changing opportunities.
Create your own ‘In Celebration’ fundraising page and include it with your invitations to your special event or occasion. You might like to insert the following phrase along with it!
‘We/I have all that we/I need in life, so in place of gifts, we/I would appreciate your contribution to PCYC Queensland,
to help build safer and healthier communities through youth development.’
