Making a difference
where it matters most
Donate today for stronger healthcare services.
Work is under way on Stage 2 of the Project Maunga upgrade of Taranaki Base Hospital. Below are the six new departments we will be raising money for to make sure Taranaki can be provided with the best healthcare possible.
PROJECT MAUNGA STAGE 2
This fantastic $330 million, Government-funded project includes the construction of a New East Wing Building that will house state-of-the-art wards, providing our region with a much-needed modern healthcare facility. It will also be the first healthcare facility in New Zealand to have a five-star Greenstar certification.
However, to maximise this development, more funds are needed for critical upgrades and enhancements of key hospital departments to ensure Taranaki District Health Board delivers the standard of care we all deserve and expect.
That’s where you can help.
We need to raise another $25 million to support facilities and services. You can set up a regular donation, or donate as a one-off. 100% of the money you odnate will go to healthcare projects in Taranaki.
Please donate by debit/credit card using the secure form below.

Your help is essential
Unfortunately, the healthcare needs of Taranaki can’t be met by Government funding alone. In order to avoid patients having to regularly travel to Waikato or Palmerston North, additional funding is required. Your generous support helps provide extra beds and facilities, as well as ensures patients have a more comfortable stay.


By giving regular amounts, patients at both Taranaki Base Hospital and Hāwera Hospital can remain close to family and be seen by the doctors they know. It also means we can invest in state-of-the-art equipment, attracting the best medical staff and securing the future of Taranaki's healthcare.
Previous Campaigns
The generous contributions from businesses and communities throughout Taranaki have helped us raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for healthcare projects across the region. But there is always more to be done.
