You did it, Gold Coast – over $228,000 raised on Giving Day!
Wow! What an incredible result and it’s all thanks to you!
Because of your kindness and generosity, we didn’t just reach our Giving Day target, we smashed it. Together, we raised more than $228,000 to help patients and their families experiencing the heartache and stress of critical health challenges.
That’s more families like Alicia’s who won’t have to face it alone. Alicia and her husband Will have been by baby Harland’s side in intensive care at Gold Coast University Hospital for months now. It’s been a scary, emotional time, but thanks to your support, Harland had access to the vital medical equipment that gave him a fighting chance.
And the impact from Giving Day doesn’t stop there. Your donations also mean:
• More cancer patients will have access to free transport to and from treatment
• More emergency accommodation for families who need to stay close to a critically ill loved one
• More support for children, adults and families when they’re facing one of the hardest times in their lives
Every donation was doubled
A huge shoutout to our generous matched giving partners, your support helped double donations throughout the day and inspired others to give. It was such a powerful way to amplify every gift and make every donation go further.
It truly was a team effort
From our incredible volunteers on the phones to the hospital teams, local businesses, schools and community groups who rallied behind the cause, more than 100 amazing people gave their time, energy and heart to make the day what it was.
Whether you donated, shared a post, answered calls or cheered us on, you made a meaningful difference.
From all of us at the Foundation, thank you!
You helped make this Giving Day one to remember, and we’re beyond grateful. The funds raised will help save lives and make a meaningful difference to patients when it truly matters
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Gold Coast.
