Your Giving Day donation can help so many, and even help someone you know or love.
And, every dollar you give will be DOUBLED because of a very generous group of supporters until matched funds run out.

What does care mean at The Prince Charles Hospital?
“People aren’t themselves when they’re sick. They might be upset, in pain, or frightened. But I try to treat every person as if they were a member of my own family.” Tania, Theatre Nurse.
The ED doctor:
“No matter how serious things are, I know I can bring comfort to a person just by explaining what’s happening to them and what we’re trying to do to help.” Tigue, Emergency Specialist
The ‘Charlie’s Angel’:
“Every little thing can make a big difference. Sitting with someone, helping a family member who’s looking for their loved one, noticing that a person is alone and having a quiet chat with them.” Janette, volunteer.
The people on the frontline at The Prince Charles Hospital do everything they can to provide personal, dignified and compassionate care.
Will you show your care with a Giving Day donation now.

Matched Giving FAQs
How does Matched Giving work?
Matched giving is your chance to amplify your impact!
When you pledge to be a Matched Giver for The Common Good, you commit to matching donations made by the general community, allowing their value and the impact of their donation to be doubled.
This kind act means that your support goes further for sick and injured kids at The Prince Charles Hospital.
What are the benefits of Matched Funding?
The concept of matched funding creates a sense of urgency and can inspire more support. As such, this is an incredible opportunity for matched givers to magnify their charitable impact and make a more significant difference in the causes they care deeply about.
It's not just about giving; it's about being part of a collective force for positive change, where every dollar you give multiplies hope and progress.
Plus, charitable donations of $2 or more are also tax-deductible.
Is Matched Giving tax deductible in Australia?
Yes, matched giving, like other charitable donations of $2 or more, can be tax-deductible in Australia.
