Some milestones are about numbers. This one is about the millions of moments behind them. 

Since Entertainment began in 1994, community fundraising organisations across Australia and New Zealand have raised more than $113 million through Entertainment. 

That’s $113 million helping schools, sporting clubs, charities, animal welfare organisations and community groups continue doing the things that matter most. 

And it all started with a little gold book. 

From the Entertainment Book to $113 million 

For many Australians and New Zealanders, the Entertainment Book is a familiar part of growing up. 

It was passed between friends, taken into workplaces and sold at school gates, soccer pitches, club meetings, tea rooms and kitchen tables. Behind every book was usually someone raising money for something they cared about. 

A parent supporting their child’s school. A volunteer helping their local sporting club. A community group working towards its next project. A charity raising funds to help families when they needed it most. 

Thirty-two years later, the Book has become the Entertainment App, and fundraising links can now travel much further - and much faster - than the books ever could. 

But the idea at the heart of it all remains remarkably similar. 

One Membership at a time 

More than $113 million is a big number. But it wasn’t raised all at once. 

It happened one Membership, one recommendation, one fundraising link and one conversation at a time. 

Behind the milestone are thousands of organisations, countless volunteers and generations of Entertainment Members who chose to support a cause that mattered to them. 

That's what makes reaching $113 million so meaningful. 

This isn't simply an Entertainment milestone. It belongs to every fundraising coordinator who shared a link, every parent who helped their school, every volunteer who rallied behind their club, every Member who chose to support a cause and every community organisation that welcomed Entertainment into its fundraising efforts. 

Fundraising has changed. The reason for doing it hasn't. 

The way communities fundraise looks very different today than it did in 1994. 

There are no boxes of Entertainment Books to carry around. A fundraising link can be shared with friends, family and supporters online, making it easier for communities to spread the word. 

With Entertainment fundraising, supporters can purchase an Entertainment Membership and access offers across dining, travel, shopping, attractions and more, while 20% of the Membership purchase goes directly to their chosen fundraising organisation. 

It means enjoying more of the things you already love can also help give something back. 

And while the technology has changed, the people behind fundraising haven't. 

There are still parents volunteering their time. Coaches and committee members supporting their clubs. Community organisations finding creative ways to raise funds. Charities working every day to make a difference. 

They're the reason $113 million is worth celebrating. 

113 million reasons to say thank you 

This milestone belongs to everyone who has been part of the Entertainment story since 1994. 

Our fundraising partners. Our Members. Our merchant partners. Our team members. And the communities across Australia and New Zealand that have supported Entertainment for more than three decades. 

Every Membership has helped add another small piece to a much bigger story. 

Thirty-two years ago, Entertainment began with a simple idea: help people enjoy more quality moments while giving something meaningful back. 

Today, that idea has contributed more than $113 million to community fundraising. 

That's 113 million reasons to celebrate - and plenty more reasons to keep going.
