Ballarat Fundraising

The Ballarat Marathon 2026 will once again bring runners and the community together in support of local healthcare. In partnership with the Ballarat Health Services Foundation, the event raises vital funds for Grampians Health Ballarat, supporting patient care across Ballarat and the wider Grampians region.

You can support the event by donating to a runner or making a direct contribution. Every donation helps fund medical equipment, patient comfort items and wellness programs that make a real difference for patients and families.

Weekend of 25 & 26 April 2026 — we can’t wait to see you at the starting line.

Donate online to support Ballarat Marathon 2026 and local healthcare.

When you donate to Grampians Health Ballarat, you’re directly supporting the largest public health service in the Grampians region—helping provide world-class care to patients and families across Ballarat and beyond.

Community donations fund vital medical equipment, patient comfort items, wellness programs and facility improvements that wouldn’t otherwise be possible through government funding.

Every dollar helps our staff deliver the highest quality care, from maternity and children’s services to cancer care, rehabilitation and aged care.

When you give to Ballarat Health Services Foundation (BHSF), you’re investing in the health and wellbeing of our local community — right here in Ballarat and the Western District.

As the community fundraising arm of Grampians Health Ballarat, we work alongside donors, supporters and fundraisers to help deliver world-class healthcare close to home.

From vital medical equipment and improved facilities to programs that support patients and families, every dollar raised helps strengthen care for our community — now and into the future.
