EVENTS

The ACMF holds a number of both public and private events every year, ranging from cocktail parties to large scale dinners, concerts, festivals and outdoor events. We are frequently contacted by organisations and groups looking to hold their own event to fundraise for the ACMF.
No event is too big or too small, so we would love to hear your ideas! Please contact us for further details.
Volunteers are always needed for our events, whether it is collecting donations, event management or providing an ACMF presence. Please contact us for more information on how you can volunteer.
