U.G.L.Y. Bartenders around Australia have been water bombed, taped to walls, dressed up as fairies, zombies and chickens; hosted cocktail nights and crab races; held raffles, auctions and challenge quests, and generally put themselves out there in interesting ways to grab attention and raise money for the Leukaemia Foundation.

Across Australia, nearly 1,500 venues have generously taken part this year, showing everyone their Understanding Generous Likeable side in their quest to get creative and raise funds for the Leukaemia Foundation.

Queensland wrapped up their campaign on 12 September 2016 with their amazing bartenders raising a staggering $500,000.

All other states and territories officially finish at 11.59pm Monday, 14 November 2016 and there is still time to support them by supporting their events, donating in their venues, or sponsoring them online.

With fundraising currently sitting at just under $900,000, the Leukaemia Foundation hope to see this increase to well over $1.5million at the close of banking next week.

There are a heap of events on around Australia on this U.G.L.Y. Wrap Up Weekend, so head to your local venue and support their U.G.L.Y. Quest!
