Reed & Co. Charity Gala 2022

Since opening in 2018, Noosa prestige real estate company, Reed & Co. Estate Agents, in collaboration with the LOYAL Foundation, the Humpty Dumpty Foundation, and the Noosa community, together have now raised over $692,000 to donate over 60 pieces of life-saving paediatric equipment for regional hospitals around Australia.

 

 

Loyal Foundation Founder Anthony Bell OAM said he supports the Humpty Dumpty Foundation because every time a piece of medical equipment is donated through the foundation, 100 cents of the dollar goes to delivering that specific piece of equipment to the hospital or health service which has an urgent need for it – providing an immediate, real and tangible outcome.

Reed & Co. owner and founder Adrian Reed said the Reed & Co. Charity Gala is about making a positive impact, helping make a difference and be the change that could ultimately save a child’s life.

“Now more than ever, hospitals and health services need our help, and it’s our collaboration with the Loyal Foundation and the Humpty Dumpty Foundation that help make this possible. It is tough, but children don’t stop getting sick, they don’t stop going to hospital and tragically they don’t stop dying.”.

“Our legacy will be our generosity. A lot of generous people from our community have helped make a difference; I would like to thank our guests for their ongoing support and generosity on the night. Why we do it? Because it saves lives. If we don’t do it, nobody does it. If we don’t do it, the hospitals will go without. A special mention goes out to all of the sponsors; it’s with their support that has helped make the night a success”.

The company’s annual charity gala was held on Saturday, 25th June, at the Sofitel Noosa Pacific. An invitation-only event, was attended by 150 guests, including some of Australia’s greatest sporting stars, Phil Kearns and Michael Clarke, and Humpty Dumpty Foundation Founder and Executive Chairman Paul Francis OAM.

The 2022 event raised over $255,000 to donate vital paediatric medical equipment. Dr. Karl van de Merwe, of Noosa Hospital, said on the night, everything that is available to be donated is critical. It helps frontline hospital staff and makes a real difference to hospitals and healthcare services across Australia.

“These donations make the hardest part of our job a little bit easier, and more importantly, they give children the best chance possible. Items like the Giraffe Warmer, a $38,480 piece of equipment, are lifesaving and an all-in-one resus bed for very small babies.”

Thanks to Michael Clarke and Cam Stewart, husband of Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart, who kindly donated the Giraffe Warmer, the ED team of the Noosa Hospital now has the possibility to warm and oxygenate unexpected births or small infants.

Humpty Dumpty Foundation Founder and Executive Chairman Paul Francis OAM said “It is only with the support of generous donors that the Humpty Dumpty Foundation can help frontline staff and make a real difference to hospitals and healthcare services across Australia. Against the backdrop of incredibly tight health budgets, it is more important than ever we continue our critical work of providing essential medical equipment to hospitals in need right across the country.”
