We Did It!

And just like that… we did it!
We have officially passed our fundraising goal of $1,000! Thank you to every beautiful family, friend, and community member who helped us reach this milestone. We are continuing to fundraise, because every dollar truly makes a difference to sick kids like our Maisie.

Since turning one, Maisie has attended 109 medical appointments and procedures, and by next week that number will be 113. The Royal Children’s Hospital has become her safe space—but that doesn’t mean it has been easy. The work funded by the Good Friday Appeal provides not only world-class medical care, but also comfort, compassion, and support to families going through some of the most traumatic and challenging times of their lives. It gives children—some facing battles bigger than most adults will ever know—a chance at a healthy and happy future.

Maisie has had more blood tests and MRIs in her four years of life (with her fourth MRI scheduled for January) than Hayden and I have had combined. She has spent 160 hours sitting in the car travelling to and from the hospital and approximately 25 hours waiting in waiting rooms. And she is just one of millions of children and families who have walked this path over the years.

We are so incredibly grateful for your support. Together, we are helping make a difference—not just for Maisie, but for every child who needs the Royal Children’s Hospital to be there in their darkest moments.

Thank you for helping bring hope to sick kids and their families. 💛
