What does the Foundation do?

The Foundation has been an invaluable part of the Far North Queensland community since 1997. It's contributed more than $23 million to improve health outcomes in our region.

The Foundation's commercial operations, including a carpark, cafes and ATMs, support our administrative costs. This means every cent donated goes where it’s intended.

The Foundation provides more than $1 million in equipment funding each year and is increasing its investment into research each year.
