V Australia teams up with Gordon Ramsay to help South African kids!

Australia, together with Maze Restaurants in Cape Town, last month teamed up at a Gordon Ramsay black-tie event.

V Australia provided the main auction prize of the evening – two Business class tickets to from South Africa to Melbourne, including dinner at the newly-opened Maze Restaurant, located at the Crown Metropol, in Melbourne’s Southbank precinct.

The proceeds raised R80,000.00 (about AU$13,000) which went directly to the charity, Bobbi Bear, which looks after sexually abused children and those made vulnerable by HIV/AIDS. The funds will help build a new safe haven home for local children.

It’s not often that a dinner can change lives, but the Gordon Ramsay dinner at Maze in the One&Only Resort in Cape Town, did just that. The deep love and unconditional support provided by the Bobbi Bear team is helping change children’s lives; making them feel and see hope, safety and a future.
