City of Sydney in charities initiative

Australia's City of Sydney council is to partner with three major charities for its biggest annual events to help raise funds to improve the lives of children with special needs and disabilities, advocate for children’s rights and provide services for the vision impaired.
The official charity partners are: Variety, The Children’s Charity for Sydney Christmas, UNICEF Australia for Sydney New Year’s Eve and Guide Dogs NSW/ACT for the Sydney Chinese New Year Festival.
 
The partnerships will provide the charities with opportunities to promote their cause through activities such as media exposure, donation collections, event activations, speaking opportunities and social media.
 
Sydney lord mayor Clover Moore said the enormous publicity generated for three of Australia’s biggest events would help communicate the great work of this year’s chosen charities to audiences worldwide.
 
“More than three million people attend these major events, and more than a billion people see or read about them across the world.
 
"By partnering with us on some of Australia’s largest events, these charities will have excellent opportunities to promote their cause on the national and international stage.”
