If you've ever wanted to smash gingerbread houses for charity, you've come to the right website.

SAVE THE DATE - SATURDAY 1 DECEMBER 2018

The Gingerbread Demolition is a Melbourne charity event for Save the Children Australia's Cubbies program.

Cubbies, based in Fitzroy, provides a safe place for vulnerable children to play, learn and grow, with trained youth workers on hand provide mentorship and support.

On the night, it's a chance to unleash your inner child - decorating cookies, smashing gingerbread and eating delicious food - while enjoying adult-appropriate live music, beer, wine and cocktails!

THE CAUSE

Cubbies has been in the Fitzroy community since1974, and funded by Save the Children since 2014.

We know that newly-arrived migrant and asylum-seeker families often feel isolated when they arrive in a new country, so this is our way of contributing to an Australia that says 'welcome'.
