Tickets to the inaugural Fellini Cocktail Party fundraiser for not-for-profit organisation Orangutan Foundation International Australia (OFIA) are available now.

This cocktail party fundraiser is a limited-ticket event at award-winning waterfront restaurant on Friday May 3 to raise money for the conservation of critically endangered orangutans.

Tickets include an evening of delicious canapés and the finest selection of matching wine and beer, an Aperol Spritz cocktail on arrival plus entertainment throughout the night including a live band and an auction of ‘priceless’ items exclusive only to guests.

A fundraising auction of prizes that ‘money can’t buy’ will include a day with Australia’s leading neurosurgeon Dr Charlie Teo, an opportunity to meet Jimmy Barnes on his forthcoming tour, a personal training session with triple ironwoman title holder Courtney Hancock and a day on nine-time Sydney to Hobart winner, maxi yacht Wild Oats XI.

There will also be a silent auction with some fantastic prizes, including a private two-bedroom villa in Canggu, Bali, for one week and two gold bullion bars valued at $3600 plus much more.

The money raised on the night will assist in funding Orangutan Foundation International (OFI) to operate its Care Centre & Quarantine in Borneo for the rehabilitation of orphaned and displaced orangutans, as well as for purchasing, protecting and replanting vital forest habitat.

OFIA is the Australian arm of the organisation, set up to raise funds and awareness for OFI and its work protecting, rescuing and caring for orangutans and other wildlife species through a wide variety of local and global outreach and education programs.

The OFI Care Centre in Borneo currently cares for more than 330 orangutans whose habitat has been destroyed for palm oil plantations, mining and illegal logging. To support their initiatives, visit www.orangutanfoundation.org.au.
