Over the last 3 years, Morley Bulldogs has hosted a round which raises funds for a charity. In 2019, the charity of choice was Headspace, a national youth mental health foundation. 

Headspace provides early intervention mental health services and promotes wellbeing for youth aged 12-25 years old. Headspace has online councelling services, as well as support programs for secondary schools. 

The core areas Headspace covers are: mental health, physical health, work and study support, and alcohol and other drug services. 

Morley Bulldogs wore green armbands to raise awareness, and undertook a number of fundraising opportunities to raise funds for the Osborne Park branch of Headspace. Through raffles, cake stalls and cash donations, $1,300 was raised. The junior players also raised $450 by kicking goals, each which was worth $5. The club in total raised $2,000 over the course of their fundraising round.
