Ekka Strawberry Sundae Stalls
Over the last 34 years, The Prince Charles Hospital Foundation (now known as The Common Good) has been the proud custodian of the iconic Ekka Strawberry Sundaes.
Every year over 2,000 volunteers help power these stalls and serve over 100,000 sundaes across the 9 days. That’s an incredible amount of scooping, chopping and topping!
It's not just a treat! Every Strawberry Sundae sold helps to fund life-changing medical research for The Common Good.
