	AstraZeneca AstraZeneca first supported Redkite's Music Therapy, enabling us to expand the program significantly. AstraZeneca are now supporting the "Cancer Journey" and the services Redkite provides to families at each stage. We thank AstraZeneca for their generous support.
	Australian Rugby Union Redkite has been an official charity of the Australian Rugby Union (ARU) since 2007. Through this important partnership, the ARU helps to increase the awareness of our important services with Redkite families. Families are being given opportunities to meet Qantas Wallabies players through special hospital visits. The ARU shares a common belief in supporting our communities and in building further awareness of important causes. Redkite is grateful for their continued support.
	BOC The long term support of BOC has been inspirational and has involved a major commitment to overall service provision. This significant relationship is even more special due to the dedication and commitment of BOC staff and their families, who volunteer at family days, and help with mailouts and fundraising activities to help keep costs to a minimum. The commitment of the BOC family to the families that Redkite supports is exceptional. Thanks to BOC staff and management for their loyal support.

	Freehills Redkite is one of Freehills’ longest-standing pro-bono partners. In fact Redkite began over 25 years ago around the boardroom table at Freehills’ Sydney Office and they have supported us ever since.

The players, with full support of the Club, continue to help children by regularly visiting the children in the oncology wards, organising and participating in Redkite Family Days, visiting schools to raise awareness of Redkite’s services and activities and participating in Redkite and other media and community events.
