Fundraising and Events

Hannah’s Foundation needs your help to raise money on behalf of Families who have suffered Injury or Loss by way of Public Appeals and general fundraising. Our merchandise and local fundraisers aids our Public Education, Coronial advocacy, Peer Support Line and provides funding payments to families suffering financial difficulty.   Such support payments are food vouchers to Woolworths/Coles, Fuel vouchers for travel expenses to regional or city Professional Specialists and Funeral Bursaries which are forwarded to the Funeral Provider on behalf of the Family.

Would you like to hold an event for Hannah’s Foundation to help raise money for charity?   If so here is what you need to do.

General Rules for Third Party Fundraising:

  1. Each individual Fundraising Event must be authorised and approved in writing by Hannah’s Foundation so register your interest in holding an event and a Fundraising Package will be forwarded to you.  State Legislation requires permission in writing as a Third Party Collector.
  2. Applicants wishing to register a Fund Raiser must apply for Hannah’s Foundation Original Receipt Books (Consecutively Numbered) if wishing to hold a physical fundraising event. Online Fundraising is below.
  3. Applicants must provide to the Executive Committee Three (3) contacts for the event who will be responsible for the return Receipts, Sales Log Register (if selling Hannah’s Foundation merchandise) along with the Balance of Funds at the end of the Fundraising period permitted.

Hannah’s Foundation will provide the funds to the Category account chosen.  You can choose from:  Funeral Bursaries, Medical Services (gap payments for professional therapists and equipment for those who need disability aids), Public Education Programs and Peer Support (aiding travel for Coroners Inquests for Advocacy, helping families reach a PSO, telephone support line 24/7) or a Specific Family who have suffered loss or injury.

Hannah’s Foundation will not authorise door to door collectors, street collections, or telemarketing.  If you are contacted by a person purporting to be a representative always ask them for their Official Certification and Hannah’s Foundation ID.  If they are unable to produce this we urge you not to hand over money or your credit card details.  Hannah’s Foundation only allows Give Now to collect on a regular basis on behalf of our charity.

All event applicants must be over 18 years of age and we will not authorise children under 16 to collect monies. This excludes preschool, primary and secondary school gold coin days under the supervision of Teachers.
