Main funding purpose: Area of greatest need
The story so far
The Bright Starts Auxiliary was established by a group of university students who wanted to give back by fundraising for the RCH. Bright Starts’ President, Louise, spent time herself in the hospital as a child and secretary, Rebecca, was studying nursing and wanted to contribute as she had enjoyed watching the Good Friday Appeal each year. Although small in size, the Auxiliary supports many RCH departments, raising funds through stalls at the RCH and bake sales at Monash University. One of their favourite fundraisers has been their Lion King movie night. During the COVID-19 pandemic, they held a Zoom music concert, which included local music artists.
