Without doubt the biggest community event of the year for the Gold Coast SUNS is the White Christmas Charity Event. This event sees the entire playing group of 45 players attend and participate in one amazing night for some of the neediest people on the Gold Coast.
This will be the fifth consecutive year that the event has been held at Movie World, with this years date set for Thursday 11th December 2014.
This wonderful night has been created to help bring a smile to the faces of those Gold Coasters impacted by Youth Homelessness, Domestic Violence and those in need in the Northern Growth Region.
The event sees over 3500 of the neediest Gold Coast attend, made up from the 10 Gold Coast SUNS nominated charity partners it supports and beneficiaries and families of the Gold Coast Community Fund.
The event comes together through the work and partnership of the Gold Coast SUNS, Movie World and the Gold Coast Community Fund who have joined together with the Gold Coast Bulletin, Channel Nine and 92.5 Gold FM in 2014 to put this Community event on.
The feature of the night is the parade down Main St to conclude the evening, which will see the entire Gold Coast SUNS playing group, joined by some of Movie Worlds favourite characters, walking through falling snow as over 1 million fairy lights light up the street.
Attendees on the night will also enjoy.
