The large crowd packed a festive-themed marquee at the Warrnambool Racecourse for the major fund-raiser.
Founder Tracy Chow described Saturday night’s event as “absolutely amazing”.
“It was a fantastic night and the feedback we have received has been really positive,” she said.
The final fund-raising total is still being finalised, but Mrs Chow was confident it would reach the $30,000 target.
Mrs Chow said the money raised from the event would go directly to the 50 families the foundation is currently supporting.
The Leila Rose Foundation is now focusing on its next fund-raiser – An Evening on the Couch with Marc and Audrey Leishman. The Warrnambool export will talk about life on the pro golf tour, while wife Audrey will share her personal health journey.
The event will be held at The Flying Horse on Wednesday, December 14 from 7pm.
Tickets for the laid-back event can be purchased from South West Credit.
