MOST gives more to the arts, music, education and community
Few experiences are more gratifying than assisting talented Australians to achieve their goals.
Not surprisingly, discovering, showcasing and rewarding talent requires significant resources.
Corporate Partnerships
There are opportunities for your organisation to contribute to MOST’s activities.
Why a corporate partnership
with MOST?
Benefits of partnership include access to our partnership, sponsor and participant communities, VIP client engagement and hospitality opportunities, meeting of needs in corporate relations and community profile, and acknowledgement on the MOST website, events and publications.
Individual Sponsorship and Support
MOST sponsors and supporters join a family of like-minded people who are dedicated to promoting excellence in the arts, music, education and in the community.
Becoming a Sponsor or Supporter
A MOST sponsor has the opportunity to invest in one of our existing programmes or we can help create an activity tailored to an area of your specific interest. This may include the establishment of and/or naming of competitions, scholarships, grants and awards, and benefits may include attendance at our events as special guests, etc.
There are also non-financial ways for individuals to support MOST – for example, by volunteering your professional expertise, or your time to help in our office or at our events.
All individual Sponsors and Supporters are acknowledged on the MOST website and in our publications.

or email info @ mostlyopera.org.au
Bequests & Memorial Gifts
A number of our activities were established as the direct result of bequests by individuals, couples or family members of loved ones. What better way to honour one's own or a loved one's wishes than to establish an ongoing legacy in an area of interest (e.g. arts, music, education, comunity development).
MOST is experienced in managing the personal and legal issues involved in the establishment of bequests, foundations and trusts — and has a proven track record in the development and administration of succesful legacy programmes.
To discuss, in confidence, a bequest or memorial gift to MOST,
contact Roland Gridiger on +61 (2) 9231 4293 or email roland@mostlyopera.org.au
