Community partnerships
We strive to make a positive impact for our customers, the environment and all Victorians. With this vision in mind, MCEC partners with leading Australian charities who share our values of sustainability, inclusivity and unconventional thinking. Together, we innovate and create meaningful change.
Good Friday Appeal
Since 1931, the Good Friday Appeal (GFA) has been raising money to enable The Royal Children's Hospital provide children with world-leading care.
MCEC has supported the event for almost 10 years. We donate millions in venue hire, tech, catering, resources and volunteering time.
Victoria’s 92nd GFA at MCEC raised a record $23 million for the hospital, drawing 102,000 visitors.
