Nine’s annual Gold Telethon, held in Sydney on Monday, raised over $1.64 million for Sydney Children’s Hospitals Foundation.

Today Extra’s David Campbell and Belinda Russell hosted a 2 hr telethon this year due to COVID-19 restrictions, joined by various Nine personalities.

Earlier this week Nicola Stokes, CEO at Sydney Children’s Hospitals Foundation, said,  “As a nation, we’ve gone through change and uncertainty. But in tough times sick kids don’t give up, and yesterday as a community we’ve shown that we don’t give up on them either.

“Raising over $1.64 million and counting for Sydney Children’s Hospital, Randwick will give the gift of research breakthroughs, state-of-the-art equipment, plus world-class clinical care – but most of all it gives the gift of hope. That’s worth its weight in gold.”

There is still time to donate to the 2020 Gold Telethon by calling 1800 244 537, texting GOLD to 0427 183 592, or visiting the Gold Telethon website.
