question
Q: This one is a keeper.

The Chappell Foundation is delighted to announce that Adam Gilchrist will be guest speaker at the celebrated and highly anticipated Chappell Foundation Annual Dinner on May 15 at the SCG.

Adam needs neither introduction nor explanation, he was a wicket keeper with such explosive batting skills that he set the template for what teams expect from their glovemen ever since.

A great man, a great of the game and a great storyteller.

Q: The Chappell Foundation will distribute at least $1 million in 2023 to frontline charities in the struggle against youth homelessness, following our most successful Annual Dinner.

The 6th Annual Dinner at the Sydney Cricket Ground on September 13 raised $480,000 net of expenses, more than $50,000 ahead of the previous best result.

Chairman Darshak Mehta made the $1 million pledge at the conclusion of the dinner, which pushed beyond $5 million the total raised since he and Greg Chappell founded TCF in 2017.

Darshak praised TCF’s homelessness charity partners as “the invisible heroes and heroines for transforming the lives of hundreds of desperate, young homeless people”

Q: Sports Stars Sleepout13 August 2023 - The Chappell Foundation

Where does my money go?

Every dollar you contribute to Sports Stars Sleepout 2023 goes directly to homelessness charities.

You make our mission possible.

The Chappell Foundation exists to fight the blight of youth homelessness and today supports seven frontline charities that give shelter, food, education and training, healthcare and a fresh start for young Australians.

At TCF we are all volunteers – no salaries, no office – so the funds we raise, net of event costs, go straight to our charity partners. Last financial year our administrative expenses amounted to 0.7% of what we raised from events and donations.

Since 2017, the Foundation has distributed almost $3.7 million to our frontline partners.
