There is no greater generosity than that which saves a life
When you make a donation to the RBWH Foundation, your generosity buys the gift of time.
Time for researchers to develop breakthrough treatments. Time for doctors to consider new diagnoses and provide the best possible care for their patients. And time for families to continue to enjoy every precious moment with the people they love, hopeful about what the future holds.
Our health heroes through the eyes of a best-selling author
Join our inaugural Artist in Residence, best-selling Brisbane author Nick Earls, as he reveals week-by-week the passion and dedication of 40 ‘humans at the heart of healthcare’, who have left their mark on the RBWH Foundation’s 40-year history.
Nick's fascinating collection ‘Lady Lamington’s Trowel & other short stories’ is an extraordinary tribute to resilience, generosity, ingenuity and the RBWH Foundation.
This special project provided a nostalgic return to RBWH for Nick Earls: as a young medical student, he trained at Royal Brisbane before discovering his heart lay with words, not wards. Nick's background in medicine was invaluable in this groundbreaking project.
