There's still time to make your contribution

We’re asking for your help to support the Child and Adolescent Hospital in the Home program.

This service allows sick kids to get hospital-level care at home. It means fewer hospital visits and more time with family.

Every contribution, big or small, plays a part in creating a supportive and positive environment. By supporting projects like these, you help reduce stress, enhance family connection, and bring moments of joy to those who need it most.

Programs

Help fund a stress relieving therapeutic program, like the Therapy Dogs Program for patients and healthcare teams...

Therapeutic programs ensure patients' healing is holistic - taking into consideration mental and emotional wellbeing as a crucial aspect of the journey. The range of different programs offer outlets for relaxation, stimulation, creativity and companionship.

Equipment

Help fund specialty equipment that assists our healthcare teams to deliver exceptional patient care for every patient... everyday!

State-of-the-art technology and equipment enables streamlined workflow for health professionals and helps to decrease the distress experienced by patients and their families and caregivers.

Research

Help fund clinical trials and medical research for the Canberra region, to save patients and families travelling interstate...

Research of high quality, including discovery research and research aimed at improving everyday patient care, patient wellbeing, and health outcomes.

Transformations

Help fund refurbishments to make hospital feel more like home, including uplifting art, comfortable chairs and calming courtyards.

Refurbishments of away-from-bed spaces transform the hospital experience. Bright artwork, cosy furniture, and inviting decor make spaces feel less clinical, offering respite and distraction for patients and their families.

How does your donation help?

You can help us support our patients, families, loved ones and healthcare teams. Some examples of the projects being supported:

  • refurbishment of accommodation for regional patients & carers
  • comfortable recliner chairs to enhance recovery for patients after surgery
  • wellbeing equipment for adolescents reintegrating into the community after a mental health crisis
  • samaritan funding provides dignity and support to patients who find themselves unexpectedly without clothing
  • artworks designed to distract and calm in the BreastScreen ACT waiting room

Your donations will have a big impact on your community when they are at their most vulnerable.
