Donnie Squad

Good Friday Appeal 2026

Help me reach my goal of $1,500

Give for the kids!


Over the past three years, the Donnie Squad has raised over $13,500 for the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal. In 2026, we’re running again!

We’re starting with our local, DIY Run/Walk for the Kids at Lilydale Lake, and later I’ll be taking on a 20km sky run + 40km for my 40th birthday.

We don’t take being able to run for granted. Thank you for running, walking, donating, and showing up with us. Please dig deep for the cause very close to our hearts.

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.

with heart
