The difference you can make
Thanks to the generosity of our community, we’ve helped to enhance a range of family and patient care programs, fund vital equipment and give patients more time together with their loved ones.
Your gift can support people through the hardest, happiest, and saddest times of their lives. Your impact of giving can make a difference to a cancer patient, a sick child or someone with a life-altering injury.
Caring for premmie babies
The Toowoomba Hospital Neonatal Unit provides life-saving care for up to 60 sick and premature babies every month. With generous donations from our community, we were able to fund significant upgrades to the existing unit to create a more private and calm space for parents to be with their newborn babies.
The unit was transformed with new bays for babies and their families, nurses station, baby care area, kitchenette, flooring, and colour scheme, creating pleasant surroundings for families, staff, and the little miracles in their care.
The donations people leave in their Wills can play a massive part in funding projects like this for patients and their families.

Common questions about Gifts in Wills
What is a gift in Will?
A gift in your Will is a pledge to make a future donation to charity. With the help of your solicitor, a gift in your Will can be made after financial commitments, funeral arrangements and your loved ones have been looked after. A gift in Will allows you the chance to give to a cause close to your heart, with a long-lasting impact after your lifetime..
Why should I leave a gift in my Will to Toowoomba Hospital Foundation?
Leaving a gift in your Will is a way of supporting the causes you care about today without having to make an immediate financial contribution. Your gift to THF will mean that we can continue to fund vital equipment, patient programs, research, and staff development and scholarships, so that our region receives the best possible healthcare.
How do I leave a gift in my Will to Toowoomba Hospital Foundation?
We understand that your priority when making or updating your Will is to provide for your loved ones. We strongly recommend seeking legal advice when it comes to organising your Will. A legal professional can guide you through the process and suggest how you might be able to leave a gift.
Do I need to choose a specific area to leave my gift?
No. We recommend leaving a general gift, as this will help THF direct your donation to where it's needed most and give us flexibility to respond to the changing needs of our hospitals and health service.
Should I notify you if I’ve included you in my Will?
We understand that making a Will can be a very private matter, so you are under no obligation to share this information with us. However, we do love to hear from those who support the Foundation as it gives us the opportunity to personally thank you for leaving such a special gift.
I’ve already made my Will, can I still leave a gift?
If you've already drafted your Will, we recommend speaking with your solicitor who can help you create a codicil to include a gift in your Will to THF and ensure that your wishes are expressed correctly.
My gift is only modest, does that matter?
The Toowoomba Hospital Foundation is honoured and grateful to have the support of thoughtful people like you, who choose to leave a gift in their Will. Every gift, no matter how great or small, makes a world of difference to our patients and health service and is greatly appreciated.
