Give your local hospice a hand this End-of-Financial Year

Noosa local community hospice, Katie Rose Cottage in Doonan, is seeking your help this End of Financial Year (EOFY).

They continue to strive to provide exceptional, compassionate palliative care, 24/7 to clients facing end-of-life at no cost, when every moment really matters.

This hospice is one of just a few hospices in Australia, offering palliative care at no cost to their guests, however, this comes at an enormous financial cost, with their dedicated paid specialist palliative care nurses and doctors offering round-the-clock care, at a cost of $1.3 million annually.

Whilst Queensland Health contributes about 35 per cent of this cost, they rely on donations from the community, grants, and money raised through fundraising events, to meet the shortfall, so if you are looking for Tax Concessions this EOFY, please consider giving them a hand.

They need your help to keep delivering these very important services to the community.

There are many ways that you can help. Why not sponsor a nurse? Or give to their new future fund? Or contribute to their building fund and help them to expand the facility from three beds to five beds, enabling them to assist more families in the future.

The hospice assists over 110 guests per year, delivering professional care of the highest possible standard.

Katie Rose Cottage Hospice has Deductible Recipient Status (DGR) from the Australian Tax Office.

All donations over $2 are full tax deductible. Donations can be made via their website at katierosecottage.org.au/donate
