Starting on 17 September!

How it works

$2 Hummingbird House donation cards will be available at Coles stores across Queensland. Each card has been personally created by children and families who have stayed at Hummingbird House — and every design tells a unique and powerful story.

There are also more ways to support the appeal!

Support in-store fundraisers like raffles, bake sales and sausage sizzles at your local Coles store. View all events below.
Purchase selected Coca-Cola products (from the 17 September) knowing a percentage of all sales go to Hummingbird House.
Make a donation online, today!

Why it matters

Hummingbird House is Queensland’s only children’s hospice, providing free, specialised care for families when time is short and memories matter most. Since 2014, the Coles Hummingbird House Appeal has raised over 6 million dollars to help fund short break stays, end-of-life care, and ongoing family support.
