Burnet and the 'Big Three'
News
More than 12,000 Rompers involved in 2400 teams brought the streets of Melbourne alive on Sunday 21 March in the Melbourne City Romp.
In 2010 we had a New Date, New Sponsors, New Corporate event, New Twists!
There was new challenges, new quirky and iconic checkpoints to visit, greater emphasis on fundraising for Romp for a Cure with awesome prizes won, PLUS all the fun, frivolity and colour that makes the Romp such a unique event.
Part treasure hunt, part ‘Amazing Race’, part puzzle – the Melbourne City Romp is definitely a charity fundraising event like no other!!
Rompers raised more than $110,000 to assist Burnet in its fight against The ‘Big Three’: HIV, TB and malaria, some of the world’s worst infectious diseases which cause the death of seven million people each year.
The countdown has begun – see you in Melbourne in March, 2011!
Where does the money go to?
Three Burnet projects fighting The 'Big Three': HIV, TB and malaria will directly benefit from the $118,000 raised by our Rompers and their supporters -THANKS!
