Good Friday Appeal 2026

Give for the kids!

A huge thanks to Jan and Mick for sharing their property with family, friends and friends of friends. 

While they both love having everyone down at the river, we all should acknowledge the huge amount of work that comes with keeping the area looking so good. Lawn mowing, tree watering, toilet cleaning, maintenance and the occasional sore head the next morning. 

If you would like to show your appreciation, they ask for you to support The Good Friday Appeal by making a family donation for each stay. 

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
