Event Recap — Excellent Thursday 2026
$21,900 Raised For The Klim Foundation
Excellent Thursday 2026 has drawn to a close, and what a day it was. We are deeply grateful to every guest who joined us and to the sponsors who made the evening possible.
Together, we raised $21,900 for the Klim Foundation — a record-breaking result that speaks to the extraordinary generosity of our community. Every dollar raised will go toward supporting the vital work the Klim Foundation does, and we could not be prouder of what we achieved together.
Event highlights captured by our sponsor Visual State Studio will be shared over the coming weeks — stay tuned, and follow us on Instagram to be the first to see them.

2026 Charity in the Spotlight
Klim Foundation
Founded by Olympic gold medallist Michael Klim, the Klim Foundation is dedicated to raising awareness of CIDP — a rare neurological disorder that attacks the body's nerve fibres, affecting thousands of Australians. With no known cure and little awareness, the Foundation provides vital support for sufferers, their families, and the health professionals caring for them.
This Easter, every dollar raised at Excellent Thursday goes directly to their cause.
