Our Vision
Our vision at Northern Health Foundation is a healthier community for every person, every day.
Northern Health Foundation shares in the vision and values of Northern Health. Our key challenge now and in the years ahead will be to continue to support the varied and growing needs of the northern community.
Northern Health Foundation was established in 2005 to increase the philanthropic, corporate and community support for Northern Health services.
The funds raised are allocated towards the purchase of vital life-changing equipment, capital works, research and training.
The Northern Health catchment includes three of the state’s six growth areas: Hume, Whittlesea and Mitchell. The swift development of new suburbs in the north will see the population grow between 50-53 per cent by 2036.
Northern Health cares for a diverse community, born in more than 153 countries, who speak over 122 different languages and follow over 90 different religions or beliefs.
Northern Health is the key provider of acute, sub-acute and ambulatory specialist services in Melbourne’s northern region.
The Northern Health catchment encompasses the rapidly expanding local government areas of Banyule, Darebin, Hume, Nillumbik, Whittlesea, Mitchell and Merri-bek.
