Our Story

Since 1991, Toowoomba Hospital Foundation has grown into one of the most respected and trusted local charities in the Darling Downs.

Every year with the support of our community we raise funds for the Darling Downs Health Service in aid of providing extra medical equipment, resources, patient care programs, research, and staff training to help our hospitals deliver better experiences for their patients and their families.

Governed by a volunteer Board of Directors and made up of a passionate team of professionals, we make sure that 100% of all community donations go directly to where it’s needed most in the health service.

A bold statement, we know! Since our very beginning as a newly formed Hospital Foundation, we’ve built a strong business and social enterprise base which includes the Toowoomba Hospital Visitor Car Park, Wellbean Co, and the Clive Berghofer Toowoomba Hospital Accommodation. It’s through these businesses and social enterprises that we’re able to cover operational and administration costs, as well as raise vital funds for Darling Downs Health.
