Individuals, schools, community groups, corporations and other organisations can raise funds for the Black Dog Institute. There are lots of fun ways to do this like organising a trivia night, charity golf, tennis or bowls day; hosting a dinner, a wine tasting or a barbeque; or getting sponsors for a community sporting event.
We are happy to assist with your fundraising efforts and can provide promotional material and the Black Dog Institute logo. If appropriate, we may even be able to arrange a guest speaker for your event.
If you have any queries please contact Vicki Miller on 02 9382 9263 or vicki.miller@blackdog.org.au

Often families ask their friends to make a donation to a preferred charity rather than sending flowers when their loved one passes away. The attached Sympathy Card has Black Dog Institute donation details on the reverse and can be downloaded for you to print out and have available at the funeral service. It can be printed in colour or black and white on an A4 page. Simply fold in half twice for an attractive card that mourners can take away from the service.
