For more than four decades, Very Special Kids has been helping families navigate some of life’s most difficult challenges by providing specialist care, counselling, respite services, bereavement support, and practical assistance throughout a child's illness, death, and beyond. At the heart of their services is Very Special Kids House, Victoria’s only children’s hospice, which provides a warm, welcoming, and family-centred environment where children can receive specialist palliative care while creating precious moments with those they love. Their support extends far beyond medical care. Very Special Kids assists families through every stage of their journey, helping parents, siblings, and carers access emotional support, counselling, peer connections, and practical resources during times of immense uncertainty and grief. Every year, the organisation supports hundreds of Victorian families, ensuring they never face these challenges alone. A Community Coming Together Gather to Give is more than a fundraising event—it is an opportunity for Melbourne's hospitality industry, local businesses, and community members to come together for a shared purpose. By attending, you will not only enjoy an exceptional afternoon of food, drinks, and entertainment, but also help provide comfort, care, and support to children and families during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. Together, we can make a meaningful difference. Contact events@thegeorgeoncollins.com.au for any enquiries.
