Burnside Hospital Foundation recieves donations and bequests from generous members of our community, businesses, and philanthropic trusts and foundations. We also generate income from fundraising events and through the sale of merchandise such as Entertainment Books.
Supporters receive regular newsletters to keep them up to date with our activities.
