Each year we need
to raise substantial funds to meet the shortfall between our Government funding
and our operating costs. We are grateful
for the support of our community through monetary donations, support
of our two shops, attendance at our various fundraising
events, and volunteer
assistance, all of which help us provide our high standard of care to patients
and their families.
