Zetland, 5. September 2024 – Audi Australia is proud to announce the launch of the Audi Foundation’s 13th raffle, which offers ticket holders the opportunity to win two exceptional prizes while supporting some of Australia’s most impactful charities. The last Audi Foundation fundraising raffle for 2024 will see one lucky winner driving away in a Audi RS e-tron GT valued at $299,994.71* (driveaway), and another winner treated to an exclusive Audi Driving Experience.
Since its inception in 2017, the Audi Foundation has donated over $7 million to a range of progressive charitable organisations across the country. Established by Audi Australia and the Audi dealer network, funds raised have played a critical role in driving positive change in areas such as education, youth development, mental health, and medical research.
The Audi Foundation has distinguished itself by forming long-term partnerships with charitable organisations that have a proven impact in their areas of focus, rather than relying on one-off donations. By partnering with not-for-profits such as RU OK?, ReachOut, batyr Australia, Humpty Dumpty Foundation, Country Education Foundation of Australia, Zephyr Education Inc., Youth Opportunities, and Children’s Cancer Institute, the Audi Foundation's strategic and focused approach has continued to make a positive difference in the lives of countless individuals and families.
By participating in the raffle, entrants contribute directly to the continued success of these charity organisations, helping to improve lives and communities throughout Australia.
Audi Foundation Chairman and Director of Audi Australia, Jeff Mannering, noted the company’s commitment to progress, stating, “The Audi Foundation embodies our brand’s dedication to making a difference in the Australian community.”
“Through this raffle, we’re able to continually support charities that are creating meaningful change, and offer ticket holders a chance to win extraordinary prizes. It’s a win-win, and we’re incredibly proud of the impact we’ve made together over the years.”
One fortunate winner of the raffle will drive away in a new Audi RS e-tron GT in Daytona Grey, a high-performance all-electric grand tourer that epitomises Audi Sport’s commitment to innovation and design. With dual electric motors delivering up to 475 kW (in boost mode) and 830 Nm of torque, the RS e-tron GT accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds. Straight-line speed is more than matched by superb handling, with perfect weight distribution, adaptive three-chamber air suspension, and all-wheel steering as well as the electronically variable rear axle differential lock with torque vectoring. A formidable combination, the RS e-tron GT will inspire the imagination and delight the senses for one lucky ticket holder. Valued at $299,994.71* (driveaway), this prize represents the pinnacle of Audi’s electric performance lineup.
In addition to the first place prize, another lucky winner will enjoy an invitation to an exclusive Audi Foundation dinner and Audi Drive Experience for two at the iconic Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit. This invitation-only event blends fine dining and thrilling motorsport, offering an unforgettable experience. The prize includes a private dinner at Bistro Guillaume, hosted by Audi Ambassador Guillaume Brahimi, followed by a track day at Phillip Island, where the winners will have the opportunity to experience Audi’s high-performance vehicles in action with the Audi Driving Experience program. This exclusive package, valued at $6,451, includes return flights from the winner’s nearest capital city to Melbourne, luxury accommodation at Crown Towers, and transfers throughout the experience.
Tickets are priced at $55 and are available to purchase online at https://audifoundation.com.au/prizedraw. With just 12,000 tickets available, all entrants go into the draw to win a new Audi RS e-tron GT in Daytona Grey, or an exclusive invitation to an Audi Foundation Driving Experience. The raffle is open to all Australian residents 18 years and over.
The raffle concludes on Wednesday 30 October, 2024 at 17:00 (AEST). The winner will be drawn randomly from all eligible entrants on Friday 1 November, 2024 at 15:00 (AEST), at Audi Centre Sydney, 895 South Dowling Street, Zetland, New South Wales.
