Mackayâs night of nights for two incredible causes has raised more than $100,000 through generous auction bids and the regionâs business community stepping up to donate.
Billed as the biggest and best Mayorâs Charity Ball yet, the 422 people in attendance at the MECC Saturday night appear to have smashed previous fundraising goals with proceeds to be split between the Domestic Violence Resource Service and HeartKids Mackay.
The final tally of the nightâs fundraising amount is yet to be tallied, but organisers are confident it has eclipsed the 2019 total of $121,000.
Mayor Greg Williamson is ecstatic with the outcome.
