Good Friday Appeal 2026

Give for the kids!

We are making a difference this Good Friday Appeal, and We need your support.

We all know firsthand the life-saving work of The Royal Children's Hospital. They provide world-class care to seriously sick kids, and my goal is to help them continue that mission.

Every dollar we raise has an impact. This is our chance to ensure thousands of children get the special care they need—this year, and in the future.

Please donate generously and help reach our target. Let's do something GOOD for the kids.

The Good Friday Appeal has been raising funds for sick kids and their families at The Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH) for 95 years.

Through the generosity of the community, the RCH continues to deliver world‑class, comprehensive care.

Every dollar donated supports:

  • Ground‑breaking research
  • State‑of‑the‑art equipment
  • Training and unique patient‑centred care programs

In just one year (2024–2025), hundreds of thousands of kids were cared for:

  • 85,415 appointments for urgent and essential care in the Emergency Department
  • 53,450 admissions to a ward, where children and young people received expert, compassionate care
  • 15,106 surgeries, paving the way for brighter futures
  • An incredible 456,000 outpatients seen — that’s an average of 1,250 appointments a day

By supporting this fundraiser, you are part of the impact, helping children live their best possible lives.

Please help make a difference and share this page with your friends, families, and networks.

Thank you for giving for the kids.

My Updates

RCH Good Friday Appeal – Thank You for Your Generosity So Far

Tuesday 31st Mar

A huge thank you to everyone who has already donated and joined in our RCH Good Friday Appeal fundraising. Your support, your gold coins, and your enthusiasm at morning tea are already making a real difference for children and families who rely on the Royal Children’s Hospital.

Today’s morning tea was a hit — helped along by Routley’s supplying an incredible spread of hot cross buns. The smell alone was enough to draw a crowd.

And we’re not done yet. This Thursday, we’ll be hosting another morning tea, featuring even more delicious hot cross buns, generously provided by West Coast Bakeries and Sun Bakers Barwon Heads. It’s another chance to come together, share something tasty, and support a cause that matters.

If you’re able to donate, every contribution — big or small — helps the RCH continue its life‑changing work. Your generosity truly counts.

Thank you for keeping the spirit of the Good Friday Appeal alive across our team. Let’s keep the momentum going.
