A day to remember – a gift that lasts
BlueCare's Giving Day is more than a moment – it’s a journey. Your donation helps fund critical dementia-specific programs, memory support therapies and specialised dementia training for across Queensland. Together, we can create lasting impact for people living with dementia and their families.
This year in Queensland, over 85,000 people are living with all forms of dementia.
Just $48 can provide meaningful items for memory kits, such as familiar items and photos to help spark conversation and connection. But any amount makes a difference.
Every gift helps ensure that no-one faces dementia alone. Thank you for making a difference.

What your support makes possible
Stories worth sharing
$25 can help fund My Life Story books, a powerful tool for memory-making, reminiscence and emotional comfort. On Giving Day, it doubles to $50, helping preserve and honour each person’s unique story.
Memories that matter
$48 can provide memory kits filled with familiar items and photos to help spark meaningful connections. On Giving Day, your donation could be doubled to $96 —bringing comfort and cherished memories to even more people living with dementia.
Give carers
a break
$75 can help fund specialised dementia training for staff across Queensland. With matched giving, your $75 becomes $150, providing vital support to twice as many carers when they need it most.
Creating calm and comfort
$95 can help create sensory spaces in aged care homes to reduce agitation and anxiety. And on Giving Day, your impact is doubled: $95 becomes $195, creating calming environments that comfort and care for those who need it most.
Jane’s Story: How BlueCare helps her care for Errol at home
Jane noticed the changes in Errol nearly a decade ago. Forgetfulness at first, then conversations fading away. “The hardest part was the emotional grief, losing someone I used to have good conversations with,” she shares. But thanks to BlueCare’s dementia care team, Jane has found moments of respite, hope and even time for her art again…
Frequently Asked Questions
What and when is BlueCare Giving Day?
Giving Day is a 12-hour online fundraising challenge, from 8am to 8pm, where we call on our Queensland community to support BlueCare’s dementia support services in our own backyard. This year's Giving Day will take place on Thursday, 23 October 2025.
Where does my donation go?
Your donation to BlueCare's Giving Day will be used to support dementia support and care across Queensland.
Your gift could fund therapeutic tools and spaces, innovative technology and programs, and specialised dementia education and training for BlueCare teams that go beyond what service fees provide.
If there is another specific area or service close to your heart that you'd like to donate to, please give our Fundraising team a call on 1800 001 953.
What is matched giving? How does my donation make double the difference?
Donations are being matched by generous donors and partners of BlueCare until the end of Giving Day, or until the funds they've dedicated are exhausted, whichever is sooner.
This means that if a partner has chosen to match up to $20,000 on Giving Day, donations made by people like you will be matched dollar for dollar until the $20,000 has been exhausted, or Giving Day has ended.
So, if for example, you make a gift of $100 on Giving Day and matching is available, BlueCare will receive an additional $100, doubling your support.
Thanks to our generous Giving Day partners
