We have three authorised Collection Groups in Melbourne who are always looking for new volunteers to support their generous fundraising efforts and give their time for the kids throughout the year.

Pied Pipers

The RCH Pied Pipers is one of our key volunteer groups who have been supporting the Appeal since 1969. The RCH Pied Pipers support the Appeal through a variety of fun ways, including organising a school door knock on Good Friday, doing intersection collections and selling AFL Premiership Posters.
