You can make a difference

As an independent Christian charity, we are committed to improving the quality of life for people in need, no matter their background, faith or circumstances.

Many seriously ill and older Australians have care needs that aren’t covered by standard funding sources. This is why The HammondCare Foundation is dedicated to raising vital funds to provide high quality care.

By donating, you are helping people in need at the hardest time of their lives.

Regular Giving

Regular donations are the gifts that keep on giving. At HammondCare, we rely on your generosity to help and care for people in need, and provide vital support to those in the community who need it most. You can ‘set and forget’ your regular donation, knowing you’re making an ongoing difference.

Fundraise your way

Put the 'fun' in fundraising by raising awareness within your local community. Get creative with your fundraising initiative and spread the word online.

There are a few steps involved in starting a community fundraiser. Click below to read more on how to apply.

In Memory Giving

Celebrate the life of a loved one in a lasting way by giving a gift in their memory. 'In Memory' gifts help us increase the care we can provide, undertake research and better serve those in need.

Many people choose to ask for a donation rather than flowers at their loved one's funeral or memorial service. Funeral directors can assist with the collection of donations in lieu of flowers, and we can also supply giving envelopes.

Leave a Gift in Will

You can choose to leave a Gift in Will to support the work we do for those in need. By leaving a bequest to The HammondCare Foundation, your legacy will improve the quality care for older Australians both now, and into the future.

If you’re considering leaving a Gift in Will, please speak with us. We would like to get to know you and hear your story, and discuss the areas you would like to support. Call Nina Johnson on (02) 8280 8432 or send an email.
