What is a Giving Day?
A Giving Day is an incredible one-day celebration when the community rally together to raise as much money as possible for a particular cause, drum up support, and maximise donations.
Stroke Foundation's Giving Day will be held on the 21st November 2024 and will be a day dedicated to raising vital funds to keep our critical StrokeLine service running.
What is StrokeLine?
StrokeLine is Stroke Foundation's free helpline.
StrokeLine’s health professionals provide information and advice on stroke prevention, treatment, and recovery.
Our StrokeLine team can help you find the support and services you need, whether you're a survivor of stroke, carer or family member.

Where does my donation go?
Every dollar you give to our Giving Day will go directly to the Stroke Foundation and help prevent, treat and beat stroke.
Your donation will help support Stroke Foundation's critical work and services - just like StrokeLine.
Your gift will be prudently invested where it’s needed most.
