Funding & Governance
Funding and Governance:
St Vincent’s Foundation is a national, registered charity entirely dependent upon voluntary donations and fundraising. Our donors and fundraisers are vital to us and we are grateful for the goodwill and generosity given in support of our work across our three hospitals. It is only with this that we can continue to drive improved patient care, research and medical education.
Given the importance of our donors we are committed to our donor charter and we are proudly transparent about our finances. We publish audited, annual accounts on this website here
