STEPS Charity is excited to announce the STEPS Virtual Grand Winter Ball presented by BA Murphy Constructions is taking place on June 20, 2020 – from the comfort of your own home!
STEPS are taking the bold move of hosting a virtual gala event. Bringing a star-studded line up, including ARIA award winning pop group Sheppard, one of Australia’s most loved and respected recording artists – Anthony Callea and the fabulous singer and actor Tim Campbell, the fabulous Paulini returns for a consecutive year, together with a mega raffles, dance performance by the Sunshine Dance Troupe, trivia and more to raise vital funds for young adults living with disability.
STEPS Group managing director Carmel Crouch said the event is set to be a fantastic night in so many ways and hopes that households across Australia buy a ticket for this truly unique experience.
“Due to Coronavirus restrictions we can’t host our annual black tie gala event this year, but we are determined to bring a night of entertainment and laughter to the homes of all Australians so we can continue to support the most vulnerable in our community and deliver the lifestyles they deserve,” Ms Crouch said.
“We are committed to raising the funds for the expansion of boarding college at STEPS Pathways College, Australia’s first college teaching young adults the skills for an independent lifestyle,” Ms Crouch said.
“Thanks to the support of our wonderful partners, the event’s going full speed ahead, with a whole new spin, we have so many incredible, talented people joining us on the night, and we invite everyone to join us!
“Tickets are very affordable and it’s a great way to support charity, have fun at home, dance the night away and enjoy this interactive experience,” Ms Crouch said.
The event showcases true community spirit, bringing together the generous business community with VIPS, dignitaries, families, supporters, students and volunteers for a night of entertainment and celebration.
The night will unite like-minded individuals who share a vision of creating brighter futures, who care, believe and invest in changing the landscape for Australian families living with disability, especially in tough times.
The Virtual Grand Winter Ball not only raises vital funds, it celebrates the students, families and a community of amazing people who so generously give to make this world a better place, by focussing on ability and not disability.
An Australian first, STEPS Pathways College provides young people with a disability the opportunity to live brighter, more independent lives through their unique, immersive training college.
Last year, Pathways College held its inaugural graduation, the first cohort graduated that day able to begin the rest of their lives with confidence, skills and independence, this year a new cohort of students are set to graduate, and the college has started building a new expansion to meet demands.
The two hour event starts from 7pm and is jam packed full of celebrity guests, performances, trivia and more.
