Our assistance has also extended to other Hospitals, such as Liverpool Hospital and Fairfield Hospital. The Foundation's activities are conducted by a number of volunteers and and are funded primarily by the revenue from the sale, to industry, of donated used clothing, cleaning cloths and rags, as well as from donations from the public. ...read more
