Home WoolworthsThank You! The Woolworths Easter Fundraising Appeal raised an incredible $539,835 to work wonders for sick kids! All the proceeds raised through this Appeal will be provided to the local paediatric ward or Hospital Foundation to purchase equipment and fund programs identified in the Working Wonders Grant Round. Everything we do is for sick and injured kids and we want to ensure that we support families irrespective of where they live in Queensland and northern NSW. These funds will help provide equipment and regional support programs for kids, just like your local Woolworths Ambassador, to improve services and facilities in your region.
