From Little Things BIG THINGS GROW
Gift in Will: Champion Children’s Brighter Tomorrows
“A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.” Greek Proverb.
Imagine a child in a hospital bed, surrounded by beeping machines and anxious parents. Their family is holding onto hope—hoping for expert care, advanced equipment, and a breakthrough that will bring their child back home healthy and smiling. But what if there were no more options?
It wasn’t long ago that diseases like measles, mumps, and rubella meant hospital stays for thousands of Australian children. Polio left many young lives forever changed. And too often, a child’s access to care depended on their postcode or their parents’ income.
Thankfully, that’s not the full story anymore. Thanks to the incredible dedication of researchers, clinicians, healthcare workers, and the compassion of people like you, so much has changed for the better.
At Sydney Children’s Hospitals Foundation, we’re here for every child. From tiny newborns to determined teenagers, from the cities to the most remote communities. We believe all kids deserve the very best care, no matter who they are or where they live. And no family should ever hear the words, “There’s nothing more we can do.”
That’s where you come in. By leaving a gift in your Will, no matter the size, you can help shape a healthier future for generations of kids. Your gift could fund groundbreaking research, purchase vital cutting-edge equipment, and help us continue delivering world-class care to every child who needs us.
Even leaving just 5% of your estate can make a huge difference. It’s a simple act with a lasting impact, like planting a tree today so future children can grow up in its shade.
