Racing Club (VRC)
Pin & Win charity partner
2022 and 2023
There are over 530,000 reports of child
abuse each year in Australia*.
There are more children and young people who are living with trauma resulting from abuse and neglect in their lives than we can manage.
Australian Childhood Foundation has been announced VRC’s Pin & Win charity partner for 2022 and 2023. With your help in this partnership, we will be able to provide specialist support to more children and families who need it the most.
Pin & Win is VRC’s major annual fundraising program, an initiative established in 1995 to give charities the platform to raise funds through the sale of Lexus Melbourne Cup souvenir pins.
Purchasing a pin also enters the individual into the draw to win a share in over $188,000 worth of prizes. There are many great prizes to win including the grand prize of a 2023 Lexus RX350h 2WD + Enhancement Pack in Sonic Iridium with automatic transmission, valued at $102,904 (including on-road costs).
