Cycle 4 Sam is a major community fundraising event led by Marty and Michelle Roberts in support of the Sam Roberts Family Fund at the Women’s & Children’s Hospital Foundation. It is dedicated to the memory of Sam Roberts who passed away on April 19, 2005 at the age of 4 years 10 months. This year we are challenging our community to take on a Spring Challenge of their choice to help raise funds. You can walk, run, cycle, go without something or even take up a new hobby – anything you’d like during the challenge period.

You can sign up to take on the Cycle 4 Sam Spring Challenge from 1 September 2024. The period to do your Spring Challenge runs over four weeks from 28 September until 27 October. During this time you can take on any challenge of your choice during the four week challenge period.

All funds raised through the Cycle 4 Sam Spring Challenge will support the Sam Roberts Family Fund at the Women’s & Children’s Hospital Foundation. This fund has supported a wide range of patient and family care projects. Currently, this fund is supporting the Alongside: Grief and Loss Program – a new initiative at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital that provides bereavement care for all families experiencing the death of a child.

Registration is FREE and we would love it if you gave fundraising your best shot by sharing your fundraising page with your friends, family and colleagues to support sick kids.

Whilst Facebook is a great way to share the fundraising link we give you, we suggest you do not create a separate Facebook fundraiser if you are prompted directly while in Facebook. If you raise money using separate Facebook fundraiser, it is not linked to your personal fundraising page and  it will not update your fundraising total on your page. We suggest you share your personalised fundraising page on your social platforms to encourage friends, family and colleagues to support your fundraising.

All donations of $2 and over are tax deductible. When a donation has been made to a fundraiser or their team, a receipt will be automatically sent out by Funraisin to the email address given at the time of making the donation. If you have any issues receiving a receipt please email community@wchfoundation.org.au with the name used on the donation page, the amount and the date. 

If you have the fundraising page link of the person you would like to support, simply click on the ‘Donate’ button below their profile picture and follow the steps to make your donation.

Alternatively, if you do not have their fundraising page link, you can search for a fundraiser by name, using our ‘Find a friend’ search function located on the top right hand side of this page.

It is FREE to register and participate in the Cycle 4 Sam Spring Challenge.

Taking on any challenge with a team can be lots of fun! You can all take on the same challenge, or take on individual challenges but raise funds as a team! You can create a team when you sign up, or to join a team, simply visit their team page and hit the ‘Join Us’ button.
