Virtual 24 hr Soccer Marathon to raise much needed funds for Oncology, Neurology and Heart Centre at The Children's Hospital at Westmead!
We are in our 10th year of Kicking Goals For Sick Kids Soccer Marathon event and The Children's Hospital at Westmead still needs our help!! The Children's Hospital at Westmead has done an outstanding job during these difficult times and need these funds more than ever.
We are sad to say that unfortunately due to COVID-19 we are unable to hold our event this year, however, we are hoping that our sponsors, family, friends and teams would still like to support us in raising much needed funds for Heart Centre for Children, Children's Cancer Research Unit and Neurology Department at The Children's Hospital at Westmead.
Over the last 8 years, the event has contributed over $684,000 to The Children's Hospital at Westmead and this year we are once again supporting Heart Centre, Oncology Research and Neurology departments. Last year over $130,000 was raised. This year we are still hoping to raise over $70,000 for the hospital. The utilisation of funds are agreed with each department. This event is fully endorsed and supported by The Children's Hospital at Westmead.
This event is unique because ALL proceeds/donations from the event go directly to the hospital. There are no expenses. Everything is donated; the facility, food, marketing, t-shirts, show-bags and various other items. We have no running costs. This is not a foundation.
This is not only about raising money for a great cause, but about kids learning to support other kids.
Please make a donation and help us kick goals for kids with cancer, heart disease and diseases of the nervous system. Please note that all proceeds collected are received directly by the hospital. All donations over $2 will receive a tax receipt and are tax deductible. You will receive an automated email with a donation receipt.
Thank you for your continued support of this important event.
