Recognition. Support. Gratitude.
The Delta Goodrem Foundation’s ‘Angels and Heroes’ Nurse Program is a heartfelt tribute to nurses – the backbone of our healthcare system.
Every day, nurses show up with compassion, resilience, and unwavering dedication, supporting patients and families through some of life’s most challenging moments.
The program supports vital initiatives that recognise, thank, and invest in St Vincent’s nurses, ensuring they can continue to provide exceptional care and skill when it is needed most. Your donation directly supports these initiatives and helps strengthen nursing care for our communities, now and into the future.
Gifts of Gratitude
Since 2024, the Delta Goodrem Foundation has supported International Nurses Day, held annually on 12 May, with our Gifts of Gratitude, a small token of thanks recognising the incredible Angels and Heroes who care for us every day.
Launched at St Vincent’s hospitals in Sydney, we’ve already delivered over 5,000 gift packs. In 2026, we’re expanding to reach every nurse across St Vincent’s healthcare and aged care facilities nationwide – that’s more than 10,000 nurses.
You can help us reach this by donating a Gift of Gratitude for just $25 and help make a nurse’s day extra special.
Postgraduate Study Scholarships
The Delta Goodrem Foundation provides scholarship funding for St Vincent’s nurses pursuing postgraduate studies in specialty clinical areas, including mental health, heart and lung transplantation, and cancer nursing, ensuring they can continue providing the level of care and expertise their patients deserve.
While some government funding exists, there is a shortfall of up to $5000 for a nurse to complete a 12-month program. With an annual commitment of $300,000, to St Vincent’s we are helping bridge this gap.
You can help make this possible by donating today and support our nurses to fly even higher.
Nursing Excellence Awards
Each year on International Nurses Day (12 May), the Delta Goodrem Nursing Excellence Award celebrates extraordinary nurses from across St Vincent’s Health Australia who have gone above and beyond in their every day service.
Through a peer-nominated process, three exceptional nurses from each state are recognised for their outstanding dedication, impact on patients, teamwork, and contribution to their facilities. This award highlights the very best of nursing excellence and practice.
To date, four remarkable nurses have been honoured with this award, setting the standard for compassion, skill, and leadership in healthcare.
Your support today, helps us ensure our nurses are cared for, recognised and prepared for tomorrow, so they can continue to be there for us and our loved ones during some of our toughest moments.
