Together for a cause, since 1959.
The Xavier Dinner Committee was formed in 1959 by the late and great Tim McCarthy.
Mr McCarthy formulated the concept for an annual black tie dinner for men and enlisted support for the idea from Dr Clive Uhr (later Sir Clive Uhr) the president of the Xavier Society at that time.
Mr McCarthy who was well known in the community, coerced Sir George Green from Eagers Ltd to donate a Holden motor vehicle to be given away at dinner. Despite the hefty ticket price of £25 and contrary to the expectations of some, the inaugural dinner at Lennon’s Hotel was a great success. The Xavier Dinner was born.
It’s been 65 years since 1959. Since then the Xavier Dinner has raised over 4.5 million, and continued supporting under funded and under appreciated causes with transparent, targeted donations.
At the Xavier Dinner we have a fundamental belief: that small gestures have meaning, and enough of them mean change.
