Little steps can make a big impact
Each year, approximately 60,000 babies and young patients under the age of 18 receive care at Gold Coast University Hospital and Robina Hospital. For many of these children, hospital stays can be long, challenging, and overwhelming.
By investing in a more child-friendly and engaging hospital environment, the GCHF aims to improve the experience of the many children who spend extended periods in hospital each year, as well as the thousands of children who visit loved ones across the hospital.

Cancellations, Changes and Refunds
Can I receive a refund for my donation?
Donations are generally non-refundable, except where required by law or in exceptional circumstances.
What happens if the event is cancelled or cannot continue?
If the event is cancelled or unable to proceed due to circumstances beyond the Foundation’s reasonable control, such as technical issues (e.g. cyber-attacks, platform outages), natural disasters, severe weather, emergencies, safety concerns, or government intervention—any net funds raised up to that point will still be distributed in line with the Foundation’s stated fundraising purpose.
How do I request a refund?
Any refund requests must be submitted in writing to the Foundation within 14 days of the original transaction. Please note that refunds are not guaranteed and will only be provided where required under these terms or applicable law.
