From the bottom of our Humpty Hearts, thank you for joining us for a magical evening under the stars at The Great Humpty Ball in Darwin. Hosted by our wonderful Patron, Johanna Griggs AM, this year marked the ninth time we’ve come together in the NT and it was a truly memorable night filled with outstanding entertainment, exceptional food and wine, and an incredible sense of community spirit — all in support of sick children across the Top End.

The evening was filled with unforgettable moments, from a heartfelt tribute to the late Bob Holt and his lasting legacy of generosity, beautifully captured in a moving video, to the energy and excitement of the Grand Auction and a lively game of Heads or Tails. Thanks to your support, more than $325,000 was raised. Humpty has now donated more than $10 million worth of essential and often lifesaving medical equipment, and it was wonderful to celebrate the significant milestone of more than 1,000 pieces of equipment being delivered directly to our frontline clinicians.

The NT continues to face some of the country’s most significant health challenges, and thanks to you, through collaboration and partnerships, we can continue to make a real and lasting difference — ensuring vital equipment reaches communities where it matters most so sick kids can get the care they need, when they need it. Thank you for being part of such a special evening, and for helping us create brighter, healthier futures. We can't wait to welcome you back next year!
