Today (13th June) is: Monash Children's Hospital Shine Gala, Neale Daniher Celebration Match!
Tonight is about raising funds to support children born with a cleft lip and/or palate a congenital condition that can affect a baby’s ability to feed, speak and hear. These children often face long-term, complex treatment journeys involving multiple surgeries and ongoing care throughout childhood. Your support will ensure more families receive the specialised treatment and guidance they need. https://monashhealth.org/shine-gala-2026/
