  • Telethon 2017 50 Years
    Sunday 22 October, 2017 For 50 years, the people of Western Australia have opened their hearts and donated over $250 million to Telethon since 1968. We are so proud of your generosity W.A. The money you helped us raise this weekend will be spread back into the WA community to support crucial child health research, provide much needed medical equipment, and drive social welfare programs. Telethon 2017 kicked off Saturday night to a sold-out audience at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre in the heart of Perth, with thousands watching the live broadcast in Perth on Channel 7 and on GWN7 around the state. Samantha Jade & Leo Sayer were among the stars who entertained, plus Ross Wilson came from the Lexus Ball to give a surprise performance on TV. Money raised from the Lexus Ball was a massive $1.68 million. 7 year old Maddox Ball and 9 year old Olivia Riley stole our hearts as the two ambassadors chosen to represent the kids of WA as the 2017 Little Telethon Stars. The marathon 26-hour television broadcast went live across Channel 7 Perth and across WA on GWN7. Plus it was streamed nationally via the telethon7.com, thewest.com.au and perthnow.com.au websites. The team at Channel 7 Perth, The West Australian and The Sunday Times led an army of volunteers, plus more than 250 TV production crew, 600 entertainers and 1,000 volunteers to make this year’s Telethon weekend the most successful ever. There were plenty of major donations from Telethon’s famous Million Dollar Partners, but as always it was the generosity of the people of Western Australia that shone through raising a record-breaking amount.
