Monopoly unveils Australian Community Relief edition to raise funds for bushfire-affected towns
22 local communities will feature in the special edition that will raise funds for disaster-impacted towns. 

Monopoly has launched a custom Australian Community Relief edition to help support Australian communities impacted by bushfires, floods and COVID-19.

The special Monopoly game board will showcase regions impacted in 2020 but featuring 22 local communities from around the country. For every Australian Community Relief Edition MONOPOLY game sold, $5 will be donated to the Australian Red Cross which assists the areas and people in need around Australia. $2 from each MONOPOLY Puzzle will also be donated to the cause.

The original Mayfair and Park Lane squares will be replaced with locally-themed ones, such as Mildura and Gippsland. The game will also feature custom ‘Community Chest’ and ‘Chance’ playing cards.

The makers behind the game say they wanted to provide Australians with something positive in 2020 and highlight our own backyard whilst also supporting Australians in need.

“The communities chosen have all gone through a tough time for one reason or another as everyone has in 2020 and we thought they deserved something special to remind everyone how incredible they are, and help inject some positive spirit through the Australian Community Relief MONOPOLY game,” says Charlotte Waalkens, Representative from Winning Moves Australia.

Australian Community Relief MONOPOLY is available now.
