Support Hospice
Every little bit helps
The services of Hospice Marlborough are free to our community and as a charitable organisation we receive just over 50% funding from Te Whatu Ora.
As a result, any funding shortfall needs to be fundraised for annually. We could not continue to provide the level and quality of care services we do without our hospice shops, fundraising activities and ongoing support and generosity of our community.
Whether it is buying from our charity shops, donating money/items, volunteering time, offering services in-kind, through business partnerships, leaving bequests, or participating in our events, it is this community support that enables us to continue providing our services across all of Marlborough.
You may also wish to support us by participating in one of our Hospice Marlborough events. Click here to see our Events Guide. If you have a general enquiry about how you may be able to further support Hospice Marlborough, please reach out to Leigh Somerville, Events & Engagement Lead.
The support of our community is truly appreciated, together we can deliver and achieve more.
Make a Donation
Hospice care is all about providing compassionate end-of-life care with respect and dignity.
Your donation helps uphold these values and ensures that everyone, regardless of their financial situation, can access this type of care.
Your donation also helps us sustain our mission to provide compassionate, specialized care to individuals and their families during one of life’s most challenging periods. It not only further enables us to fund specialized programs and services that enhance the quality of care provided, it’s also an investment in the well-being and comfort of your community members when they need it most.
If you would like to make a one-off or recurring donation, you can now make these online.

Leave a Legacy
Legacy donations and bequests enable us to serve more individuals and families in the community, extending our reach and impact beyond the present generation.
As a charitable trust, Hospice Marlborough also relies on the generosity of our community through donations and gifts in wills and you may wish to consider designating a specific property, savings, or a portion of your estate as a gift.
They can also be a meaningful way to honour the memory of a loved one who received hospice care or had a connection with us.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to those who have already made, and are considering making, a gift to Hospice Marlborough in their will.
