Add a Dollar for Child Health Research

Cure Kids Add a Dollar is a retail campaign whereby participating retailers ask customers to add $1 to their bill for Cure Kids. Spearheaded by the Briscoe Group, it is run in collaboration with a number of our other key retail partners such as Harvey Norman, Pumpkin Patch, Pharmacy Brands, Hirequip and Guthrie Bowron.

A simple way to make a donation, the campaign has been hugely successful since its launch in 2006 – raising over $1 million thanks to the generosity of public support and our participating companies.

Today, we are more committed than ever to help find answers to the many cruel, life-threatening illnesses that devastate the lives of young children and their families.
