  • Redkite offices across the country went wild for Hairless Heroes last week, our latest community fundraising campaign! From crazy hairstyles to colourful wigs and funny hats, our teams showed up bold and brilliant to support families facing childhood cancer. In Sydney, our very own Redkiter Declan promised to shave his head if he reached his $1,000 fundraising target…and thanks to everyone's generosity, he did exactly that! 🪒 Hairless Heroes brought together 205 amazing people, raising an incredible $69,106! A huge thank you to everyone who registered, donated, and went hairless this October. Your support makes all the difference! #Fundraising #HairlessHeroes #RedkiteCommunity

    Last week our team came together for a morning tea to celebrate all things Coles Croissants! 🥐 For every specially marked 12 pack of Coles All Butter Croissants sold this festive season, 10 cents goes to Redkite to support our critical work for families facing childhood cancer. Coles Group has been proudly partnered with Redkite since 2013, raising more than $55 million along the way! With every 12 pack sold this Christmas, we continue to build on more than a decade of partnership, together helping ensure no family faces childhood cancer alone. 🪁 #Coles #ChristmasCroissants #Partnership Gabrielle Sheehan | Jace Armstrong | Anna Croft | Rory McDonald | Brad Gorman | Sarah Hamza | Olivia Drandi | Hannah Cammack | Carl Young, CFRE

    When Brianna, a Redkite and Coles Dare to Dream finalist and aspiring automotive technician recently visited MG Motor Australia, she couldn't stop smiling! Seeing the workshop up close and spending time with the MG National After Sales team gave her a glimpse into what her future could hold. We're so grateful to MG Motor Australia, and in particular Stephen Dowler, James Staks and Tuaine Ina mata, for welcoming Brianna and giving her such a special behind-the-scenes experience! Through the Dare to Dream Scholarship, proudly supported by Coles Group, Redkite helps young people like Brianna rebuild confidence and pursue their goals, reminding them what's possible beyond cancer. #ColesScholarship #DareToDream

    Go Red for Redkite 2025 has wrapped up with an incredible result! Together with our amazing partners at Coles Group and their passionate team, an outstanding $560k was raised to support families facing the trauma and financial burden of childhood cancer. The campaign was again powered by Coles Own Brand Bread along with our generous 2025 supplier partners – Bickford's Australia, Carman's Kitchen, Mountain Blue , Tip Top Bakeries, and Bega Group Australia – who each gave back from the sale of selected products. Store fundraising made a big impact, with more than $55k raised – twice last year’s total, including $20k from the Far North Queensland region. Thank you to everyone who rallied behind Go Red for Redkite! Your support helps cover the hidden costs of childhood cancer – from fuel for hospital trips, to groceries and bills when a parent can’t work – and ensures families can access Redkite’s vital counselling, social work and financial support when they need it most. 🪁
