The Mount Lilydale Mercy College Class of 2025 Community Raffle is a special student-led initiative inspired by Catherine McAuley, founder of the Sisters of Mercy. Catherine’s mission was to respond to the needs of her time — providing education, shelter and care to those who might otherwise go without. Guided by her vision of compassion, service and opportunity, our Year 12 students have chosen to give back by raising funds to support students and families in accessing a Catholic education at MLMC.

As Catherine McAuley once said, “We should be shining lamps, giving light to all around us”. In this same spirit, the Class of 2025 hopes their efforts will help light the way for future students to experience the gift of a Mercy education.

By purchasing a raffle ticket, you’ll be helping create opportunities for future generations of students to experience the same Mercy education that has shaped our Class of 2025 — while also going in the running to win some incredible prizes, including a brand-new 2025 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid L, a $3,000 travel voucher, and a range of exciting items and experiences.

Every ticket sold makes a difference. Together, we can open doors to education, honour the Mercy tradition, and celebrate the generosity of our community.
