Throughout the year Hands of Hope runs several projects which support patients across numerous hospitals within New South Wales. These include;

• Resource packs,

Why should I donate to Hands of Hope?

Based on research and information provided from health care units we work with, unfortunately there is sometimes no funding for certain specific assistance required by patients.

Hands of Hope focuses on assisting health care units which do not receive sufficient funding or resources for patients in departments such as palliative care, paediatrics, oncology, maternity and geriatrics.

Over the years the hospitals we support have become reliant on Hands of Hope’s support throughout the year.

How does Hands of Hope determine where support is needed most?

Hands of Hope connects directly with health care unit managers to determine where support is needed most. We conduct a set research program which narrows down what, where and how assistance can be given.

Hands of Hope ensures that all support given and project developed fit within our charitable purpose which is our mission and core objectives.

Can I donate resources and material rather than money?

Yes! You definitely can. Please get in touch with us via email on info@handsofhopeaustralia.com.au for a full list of items that are currently on our hospital wish list.
