BENEFITSWhy Donate
Why give through the Lakes District Hospital Foundation
Funds targeted to hospital priorities
Your donation directly supports the areas of greatest need at Lakes District Hospital - from essential equipment and facility upgrades to staff training and patient wellbeing. Every dollar stays local and contributes to better care for our community.
Close collaboration with clinicians for meaningful outcomes
We work closely with hospital staff to identify the projects that will have the biggest impact on patient care. This ensures your support goes where it’s needed most - improving outcomes for patients and supporting our healthcare teams.
Local stewardship and transparent reporting
As a community-led foundation, we’re accountable to you. We manage all funds locally and report regularly on where donations are invested, so you can see the real difference your contribution makes.
DONATEGifts in Wills
Leaving a gift in your will to the Lakes District Hospital Foundation is a meaningful way to say thank you for the care you or a loved one has received.
You will need to contact your lawyer to update your will, and include a bequest to the Foundation. This can be a fixed sum, or a residual percentage amount of your estate.
A gift in your will can remain anonymous, or you may like some recognition on our donor wall, or set up a fund in your name to support a specific purpose. We would love to have a chat to discuss your options.
