The Auction Company GFA Fundraiser

Good Friday Appeal 2026

Let’s Do It Again! Support The Royal Children's Hospital With Us.

Last year, your generosity blew us away! 

We were incredibly proud to contribute $23,636 to the Royal Children’s Hospital — $13,636 from our amazing community, and $10,000 from The Auction Company's dollar-for-dollar matching. To everyone who donated, shared, and supported us — thank you. You helped make a real difference, and we’re so grateful you were a part of it.  

In 2026, we’re excited to do it all again! Here’s why.

For us, the Royal Children's Hospital isn't just a cause — it's deeply personal. Across our team, RCH has been there during some of life’s most challenging moments: caring for premature babies, saving young lives, guiding families through frightening diagnoses, and offering hope when it’s needed most. Some of us have sat beside hospital beds as parents. Others have seen the impact through hospital board service or healthcare experience. We all carry a deep respect for the incredible people and care within those walls — and it's why this fundraiser means so much to us.

Join us in giving generously today to help RCH continue to care for the most vulnerable among us.

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
