Help a Little Hero in your community!
When urgent treatment takes them far from home, the most powerful gift we can offer is keeping their family close.
This September, you can help make that possible.
Whether you go solo, join a team, or rally your community, your support gives children strength — and their families the comfort of staying together.
Here’s how to get started:
Register your own fundraiser or join one that inspires you
Share your story and page to spark donations
Donate to help keep families close during their toughest days
It’s time to Help Our Little Heroes.
Be the reason they don’t face it alone.
Be a Hero for our Little Heroes this September.
Everyday across North Australia Little Heroes face battles far bigger than childhood should ever hold. For their families, these moments can arrive without warning - turning ordinary days into the most challenging of their lives.
Tobias' Story - Cairns
"We thought he was just teething - then it was minute by minute, hour by hour. Without the House we would've been lost"
Luke's Story - Mackay
"They were there in our darkest hour when we arrived at the Hospital in the plane with nothing but the clothes we were wearing."
Beau's Story - Townsville
"It was overwhelming, exhausting, and scary. The Ronald McDonald Family Room was like a calm in the storm. A place to breathe."
"We thought he was just teething"
- Katie, Tobias' Mum
Every day, families just like Katie’s are thrust into medical emergencies they never saw coming — and their children become Little Heroes in the fight of their lives.
