In its 26th year, 92.7 Mix FM and the Sunshine Coast community have raised $314,588 for this year’s Give Me 5 campaign!
The Give Me 5 campaign is an annual month-long festival of fundraising supporting local patients and families in need of our health services, and Wishlist is the grateful beneficiary.
Wishlist extends our heartfelt gratitude to the 92.7 Mix FM team for their unwavering support and to everyone involved.
From donations and event support to auctions and so much more - the Sunshine Coast rallied together for sick kids and families, and the impact of these efforts will be profound.
Wishlist CEO Brendan Hogan said, “On behalf of Wishlist and the entire community, I want to say a very big thank you for your generosity and support during this year's Give Me 5.”
“The Sunshine Coast community has shown, year after year, what we can achieve when we come together.”
Funds raised from this year’s campaign will support a number of vital initiatives that will significantly enhance local healthcare services available to our community:
- Paediatric Cardiology Ultrasound Machine: Helping 1200 Sunshine Coast children stay close to home for critical cardiac care every year.
- Non-Invasive CO2 Monitors: Reducing painful invasive blood tests for critically ill and premature newborns, and reducing their need for blood transfusions.
- Continuing Key Support Programs:
- Dads Group at Wishlist Centre to combat isolation and support new dads.
- Sunshine Coast Clown Doctors service, sparking joy and healing through laughter.
- Calm Fairies service, reducing stress for children undergoing treatment.
- Wishlist Therapy Dogs, bringing comfort and distraction during hospital stays.
- Hospital accommodation, keeping families close during a health crisis.
92.7 Mix FM is our longest-serving partner, our number one supporter and one of the finest assets of this incredible community. How lucky are we to have a media organisation working tirelessly towards an even better Sunshine Coast.
There's still time to get involved in this year’s Give Me 5 with the Food & Wine Lunch and the Southern Cross Sheds Diamond Lunch so don't miss your opportunity to get behind an incredible cause.
