BIG DIFFERENCE TO LITTLE LIVES
Together with partners across Australia, we fund care that helps sick kids get home and back to the things they miss.
OUR IMPACT SINCE 2019
WE ARE THE ONLY NATIONAL ALLIANCE OF CHILDREN’S HOSPITALS AND FOUNDATIONS, REPRESENTING EVERY STATE AND TERRITORY IN AUSTRALIA.
We support eight state-based hospital partner networks, reaching 30 hospitals for local metro, regional and rural impact.
COMMITTED TO HELPING SICK KIDS GET HOME TO THE THINGS THEY MISS
Our investments are built on three research-informed pillars: improving the in-hospital experience, advancing in-hospital treatment, and bringing hospital-grade care closer to home. Together, these priorities focus funding where it can help children and families cope better during treatment, shorten hospital stays where possible, and keep care connected to family and community life.

Play, family presence and familiar routines support children during treatment.
REDUCE TIME SPENT AWAY FROM HOME
Treatment, technology and training that can reduce the burden of hospital stays.
