Appeal #1

Patient Accommodation

The Foundation’s goal is to make a positive difference in the community and ensure those undergoing radiation treatment, have access to the very best facilities and are well-supported.

Following the establishment of Mildura Health Icon Cancer Centre, it is essential we provide patients from outlying areas with easily accessible patient accommodation, walking distance to the 13th Street Health Precinct. Mildura Health Foundation has been established to raise funds through donations and grants, to build and operate 10 self-contained apartments.

The aim is to raise $5 million dollars. The patient accommodation supports our vision for Mildura to become the healthcare hub for cancer treatment and for regional people to have access to cancer care closer to home.
