Escaping domestic and family violence is only the beginning of a survivor’s journey. Rebuilding a life requires safety, stability, and a place to call home. Providing families with essential household items and a welcoming environment can help restore dignity and create the foundation for a new beginning.
RizeUp Australia is dedicated to helping families rebuild their lives after domestic and family violence. By furnishing homes with essential furniture and household goods, the organization creates safe, comfortable spaces where women and children can begin again with dignity and hope. To continue this life-changing work, RizeUp Australia is hosting its annual fundraising event.
The 2026 RizeUp Gala Fundraising Ball will bring supporters together for A Night Under the Stars, an elegant evening of connection, celebration, and community. Held at The Star Gold Coast, guests will enjoy a three-course dinner with beer and wine, live entertainment, music, dancing, and performances from fan-favorite band Bassline. Over the past three Gala Balls, supporters have helped raise $880,000, enabling 135 women and 270 children to move into fully furnished homes tailored to their needs. Every ticket purchased for the 2026 event will directly support RizeUp’s programs, ensuring more families escaping domestic and family violence are welcomed into safe homes where they can begin their next chapter.
Reserve your place here to help provide safety, dignity, and a fresh start for families rebuilding their lives after domestic and family violence.

Across our past three Gala Balls, your generosity has raised $880,000, enabling 135 women and 270 children to move into fully furnished homes tailored to their needs. Without community support, most families arrive with little more than what fits in a suitcase. Together, we ensure they are welcomed into a space that honours their dignity and helps restore a sense of stability.
In 2026, we’re bringing the Gala Ball to the Gold Coast — elevating the night with all the sparkle The Star Gold Coast has to offer. Stay onsite for the full experience or hop on our Brisbane Gala Ball Bus for $50 return.
