Patient Supporter Program

Change the future for sick kids

Thank you for your interest in Sydney Children’s Hospitals Foundation (SCHF) and joining our community of unstoppable changemakers committed to changing the future for sick kids.  

SCHF works alongside the Sydney Children’s Hospital Network (SCHN) to raise vital funds that support kids and families like yours, or families you know, during their toughest moments. Funds raised go directly to the frontline of children’s healthcare, from hospital wards, treatment rooms and research labs to outreach programs and patient experience.

How you can get involved

The Patient Supporter Program is an initiative that helps patient families, and their networks stay connected to the work of the hospital and give back in ways that are meaningful to them - when they feel ready and motivated to do so. 

Our incredible community of over 8,000 unstoppable changemakers share a sense of belonging and purpose when they choose to change the future for sick kids.  

There are simple and supportive ways to stay involved – ones that feel meaningful and empowering for your family. You can choose to connect or give back in the way that feels right for you, such as:
