Compete for OUR HEART Challenge 2024
Clubs big and small raise funds for Canberra Hospital Foundation

Canberra's local Clubs participated in a friendly community competition in October 2024, uniting to raise funds in support of patients, their loved ones, and healthcare teams across the ACT.

The Compete for OUR HEART Challenge has seen incredible engagement and creativity from participating clubs, each finding unique ways to rally their close knit member base, raise vital funds, and support people in our community facing some of the most difficult times in their lives due to a health crisis.

The Challenge has been a resounding success, raising an incredible $37,666, thanks to the creativity, enthusiasm, and generosity of local clubs. From cornhole challenges to schnitty donations, and from recycled drink containers to decorated craft caddies, every activity has contributed to our shared goal of supporting people in our community.
