Lake Taupo Hospice - Covid19

Lake Taupo Hospice delivers quality palliative care and family support to members of our community who have received a terminal diagnosis. This extensive wrap around service is completely free-of-charge and aims to empower patients to “live every moment”. Put simply, they are there for us and our whanau when we need them most.

As a charity organisation, Lake Taupo Hospice must raise over $1,000,000 a year in order to deliver its services free of charge. With record patient numbers and now the covid-19 lockdown, this has become increasingly difficult. Since the lockdown, the closure of the retail stores, the cancellation of events and the inability to fundraise have had a devastating impact on their finances.

They are a locally based charity, caring for the Lake Taupo community. Even the smallest of donations can make a huge difference to their patient’s lives.
