Our Story
Give Me 5 was established in 2009 as a fundraising team to participate in the Run for the Kids.
The intention of Give Me 5 is to raise money for the Royal Children's Hospital and support the amazing work they do not only for Victorian children but children around Australia and the world. It is all about helping those who are our smallest and most vulnerable.

The Team
We have up to 100 runners in our team who will take part in the event wearing our custom team t-shirts.
We have been one of the highest fundraising teams since inception and the biggest team by number of participants in the Run.
With over 12,000km’s under our belt we have run to Sydney and back 6 times, up and down Mount Everest over 600 times!
How to Donate
Give Me 5 has raised over $834,000 to support the services of the Royal Children’s Hospital. The money raised to date has been used by The Royal Children's Hospital ChIPS Program (Chronic Illness Peer Support Program) and the Royal Children’s Hospital Campus-wide Mental Health Strategy. In 2024, all funds raised by Give Me 5 will go directly to the Joey Pod Project at the Royal Children’s Hospital, which is creating a space to provide a new model of care for kids with severe eating disorders.
