COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS
Lexus of Blackburn is passionate about getting involved with charities and clubs at a local and state level and remains committed to making a small difference and being able to give back to the broader community where it is needed most.
KOALA Foundation Million Dollar Lunch
The Million Dollar Lunch is renowned as the 'greatest contact lunch in the country' and raises much needed funds for Victorian children with cancer and their families. The Million Dollar Lunch is the sole fundraiser for the KOALA (Kids Oncology and Leukaemia Action Group) Foundation and raised in excess of $1.2M in 2011.
Lexus of Blackburn was proud to lend its support as one of the official event partners and will continue to support this wonderful and unique event for the coming years.
Otis Foundation
The Otis Foundation has developed a network of retreats which are made available free of charge to those living with breast cancer. The properties, each selected for their location, in a beautiful peaceful environment, offer an opportunity for guests, family and friends, to take time out from the challenges of serious illness to relax, contemplate and regroup.
OTIS Vision: To reduce the psychological impact on those living with breast cancer, their families and communities through the provision of a national network of quality retreats provided at no accommodation cost.
OTIS Mission: To provide sanctuaries to nurture those facing the challenges of living with breast cancer.
Variety the Childrens' Charity
Variety provides invaluable support to children growing up with
disability, serious illness or disadvantages. Each week, Variety
Victoria directly helps approximately three individual children
and families in need, providing practical and much needed grants
for items for children who would otherwise 'fall through the
gaps' and have nowhere else to turn.
Lexus of Blackburn is proud to be involved with Variety the
Children's Charity and was the main sponsor of the 2011 Great
Grand Final Lunch, held at Crown Palladium where guests were be
able to bid for a Lexus CT 200h Prestige as the main auction
