Taranaki Health Foundation

Taranaki Health Foundation To enable the best possible healthcare via key projects that will make a significant difference to our Taranaki region.

Taranaki Health Foundation - why are we fundraising? The goal of the Taranaki Health Foundation is to enable the best possible healthcare in our region. We do this by fundraising on behalf of the TDHB to deliver new technology, enhancements and services over and above Government funding provided to the Taranaki DHB. The stark reality is that the variety of initiatives we are working on simply wou

ldn’t be possible without the generous support of the community. Successful partnership projects so far have included: Project Maunga Stage 1, new health technologies, staff training, equipment to improve patient outcomes, a new Mobility Garden and of course the new 3.6 million dollar Angiography Suite at Base Hospital to name a few. Our current fundraising efforts are now focused on Stage 2 of Project Maunga, the $300M+ East Wing development, and we are kicking it off with the Renal Unit relocation/build. Our current $25M project will join a range of enhancements gifted to the Taranaki DHB for the benefit of all Taranaki communities. We acknowledge the regional history of health fundraising to provide vital improvements and enhancements for Taranaki communities. We hope that with your support we can continue to ensure we have the best possible health outcomes for our region.

WE’RE IN THE PINK FOR MILLION STEPS!💗👟

The New Plymouth Club team is getting ready to step up this September for the Million Steps Challenge — and judging by the shirts, we’re not planning on doing it quietly.

Now we want to know…

Have you got your team together yet?

Throughout September, teams across Taranaki will be clocking up one million steps while raising funds for the Methanex Neonatal Unit at Taranaki Base Hospital — supporting some of our region’s tiniest and most vulnerable babies, and the families beside them.

It’s a cause that is very easy to get behind.
So round up your workmates, friends or family, create a team and get moving.
You don’t have to be super fit. You don’t have to run a marathon.

You just have to start stepping.

Registrations close 31 August, so now’s the time to get your crew together.

Come on Taranaki — get in the pink, get your team together and let’s step up for our littlest locals. 💗
