Coles Hummingbird House Appeal | 9 - 22 September 2026

Your small change can make a big difference

Support Queensland families caring for a child with a life-limiting condition by rounding up at any Queensland Coles supermarket checkout.

For a limited time, 10 cents from selected Coca-Cola products* purchased in Coles supermarkets across Queensland will be donated to Hummingbird House.

Celebrating

In 2016, Hummingbird House opened its doors to Queensland children with a life-limiting condition and their families as the only children’s hospice in the state. In the 10 years since, it has been a lifeline for hundreds of families who have been welcomed with care and compassion by our specialised paediatric palliative care team.

For 13 years, Coles and their customers have been part of this journey, supporting Hummingbird House even before its doors opened. Coles has helped raise more than $6 million through a partnership that has grown from 60 stores to 188 stores across Queensland.

 Everything we do, we do for Hummingbird House.

– Tracy, Coles Customer Service Manager

As we celebrate this significant milestone, we are grateful for partners like Coles and the generosity of Queensland shoppers, whose support helps make our services possible for families when they need them most. 

Hummingbird House reminds us that hospice care is not simply about the end of life. It is about making the most of life, whatever time a child has. It is about comfort, connection, dignity, joy and giving families the space and support to focus on their time together.

Support Queensland’s only children’s hospice when you round up your total at any Queensland Coles checkout from 9 to 22 September this year.

How it works

Changing lives with your spare change

From 9 to 22 September, supporting Hummingbird House is easier than ever. Next time you shop at any Coles supermarket across Queensland, simply choose to round up your total transaction to the nearest dollar.

Every cent raised goes directly to Hummingbird House, with 100% of proceeds funding specialised paediatric palliative care, symptom management, and vital respite care for children with life-limiting conditions and their families.

Other ways to support

Every sip supports families

From 2 to 29 September, 10 cents from selected Coca-Cola products* purchased from the drinks fridge near Coles checkouts will be donated to Hummingbird House. See participating drinks here.

Can't make it to Coles? You can still make a difference by making a direct donation online.

 Giving a little at the checkout really goes a long way. It allows us as staff to provide the best care possible to families and their children, as well as giving them experiences or activities to look forward to.
