About the Toowoomba Hospital Foundation The Foundation is a statutory body incorporated under the Hospital Foundations Act 1982 (Qld). Originally formed as the Darling Downs Health Services Foundation, a name change under the provisions of the Act saw the emergence of the Toowoomba Hospital Foundation. The role of the Foundation is to provide support to the region’s health services,primarilyToowoombaHospital,BaillieHendersonHospital&MtLoftyNursingHome.

As a statutory body the Hospital Foundation is subject to the provisions of the Financial Accountability Act 2009 and the Financial and Performance Management Standard 2009 and is audited annually by the Queensland Audit Office and the Auditor General. The Foundation is endorsed by ATO as a DGR and an Income Tax Exempt Charity under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997. It is also endorsed for GST concessions under a New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999 and it is exempted under the Fringe Benefits Tax Assessment Act 1986.

The Role of the BoardThe Toowoomba Hospital Foundation is governed by a voluntary Board of Directors, appointed by the Governor in Council and drawn from the General, Business, Medical and University communities. The Board Directors give of their time & expertise freely and without remuneration. They are responsible for the overall strategic direction of the Foundation, overseeing the operation and establishment of policies and procedures.

The Board and management have the responsibility of ensuring that monies provided by donors, sponsors and the general public are effectively and efficiently managed. The Role of the Board includes and is not limited to:

Board Directors attend monthly meetings and oversee the financial performance and corporate governance of the Foundation. A budget is prepared for acceptance at the commencement of each financial year. A comprehensive financial report is provided each month prior to meeting, for Directors to review the day to day business.

Directors assist staff in determining effective internal controls and oversee all contractual matters including the management and operation of the Toowoomba Hospital Car Park and Coffee Shop Cafeteria.

Applications for Funding are considered by the Directors at each monthly board meeting. A sub-committee of representatives from the community, health service, university and Foundation, oversee the selection process & distribution of funds for research initiatives for the year.

With the CEO, the Board develops and oversees fundraising projects with an emphasis on raising the awareness of the needs of the hospital and health services programs.

To the best of the knowledge of the Board, during the course of the last financial year there have been no breaches of the Hospital Foundations Act 1982 or other legislation.

ManagementThe day to day management of the Foundation is undertaken by the Chief Executive Officer & Staff who ensure the effective implementation of strategies as approved by the Board of Directors. The Chief Executive Officer is responsible for providing a written report to the Board at each of the monthly meetings.

In the 23rd year of the Foundation’s operation and having been a member of the Board for that time, it is with pride that I present the Chairman’s report for the 2010/2011 financial year.

The events of January 10, 2011 & the so-named ‘Inland Tsunami’ and its affects will remain in our memory for generations to come. Despite what many thought would be lean times for our organisation, we have recorded yet another outstanding financial year outcome and we continue to grow in stature in our region.

The energy for fund raising events for the Disaster Relief projects was outstanding and gave us cause for concern for hospital and health services fund raising however these concerns were ill-founded. The long held belief that the ‘hospital’ is the heart and soul of any community rang true & the support for our Foundations aims & mission never dwindled.

The community came forward to ensure the work of the Foundation continued to thrive and combined with our business base of Car Parking and the Coffee Shop/Cafeteria at the Toowoomba Hospital, the Foundation was then able to contribute substantially to the hospitals and health services of the region.

As always, the responsibility for the use of these funds rested solely with the Board of Directors and they once again made informed decisions and it is pleasing to report that more than $400,000 has been injected into the hospital and health service in our region in 2010/2011.

The Foundation is forever indebted for the support of a very generous and giving community, especially all of the donors, community groups, service clubs, corporate and business sponsors who make it happen. Added tothislistareourBuddhistfriendsfromthePureLandLearningCollege,whoannuallyprovideasignificantdonation towards research and education.

To hold the position of Chairman of this exceptional organisation is very humbling and I have nothing but praise for my fellow Board Directors. Together they provide so much with their skill, dedication and ongoing commitment.

The success of the Foundation is very reliant on our Staff. They are without doubt our most valuable assets and I acknowledge the efforts of CEO Peter, Anna , Pam and Rosemary. I’d also like to congratulate Anna & Merv on the safe arrival of Savana Paige, the Foundation’s first baby!!

Finally, I feel very privileged to be the Foundation Chairman, and I look forward to fulfilling this role in the years to come.

I doubt that anyone from the community of Toowoomba & region will forget 10 January 2011 in a hurry. The turn of events that day will be etched in our memories for life and the subsequent recovery from that dreadful, devastating ‘Inland Tsunami’ flood that swept through our region on that fateful day. While it would be reasonable to expect that support for the hospital and the Foundation would be down, that was far from the case.

If anything, the support for our work grew in stature and reaffirms that we are doing a great job for our community. Whilst it was requested by many of our supporters & sponsors to share profits from events conducted for flood victims, the overall effect was minimal.

The first half of the year 2010/2011 saw exceptional support for our traditional events with highlights including Fitzy’s on Church ‘Colour of Change’ luncheon raising $15,000 for the Breast Screen Clinic; the 10th Anniversary of the Clive Berghofer Group ‘A Christmas Wish’ taking the contribution from this event to over $110,000; USQToowoombaBiggestLoser;PalazzoVersacedinneratEncores;MyerToowoombadonationof$17,000for children’s health; 120 years of Baillie Henderson Hospital & Toowoomba Christmas Wonderland fared very well despite the rain interruptions.

The second half of the year featured involvement in the Peak2Park event; another $120,000 from our Buddhist friendsatthePureLandLearningCollege;a$10,000awardforourHealthyLifestylesprogramconductedinthe district health services; a huge $47,000+ result from Heritage Building Society 4GR’s Give Me 5 for Kids & two very generous bequests from local families to further advance our hospital and health services.

The Road Ahead – Working Towards a Healthier QueenslandThe Toowoomba Hospital Foundation is very mindful of the Queensland Government’s five ambitions strategy ‘Toward Q2: Tomorrow’s Queensland’ and achieving long-term goals that relate to health by 2020. The Foundation actively supports the five Toward Q2 ambitions for Queensland in the following ways.

StrongInfrastructure supporting growth of health services

The annual profit from the Foundation’s business base of car parking and coffee shop/cafeteria at the Toowoomba Hospital is used to cover the operational costs of the Foundation & its staff.

Any excess funds are used to support local health services or are invested judiciously for future use for the hospital & health services.

The Foundation employs three full-time staff members and any operational costs spent for events/goods/services etc. are, in the main, done locally.

GreenEnhancing our lifestyle & environment

TheFoundationincollaborationwithToowoombaHospitalOH&SsupportedaHealthyLifestylesprogramfor all staff & won a prestigious Healthy Australia award of $10,000 for our efforts.

The Foundation‘s office is at 41 Joyce Street, Toowoomba, adjacent to the hospital and staff strive to adhere to environmentally-friendly workplace practices.

SmartEducating a Workforce

Close to $200,000 was spent by the Foundation on the education of local health staff from all streams within the hospital.

Workshops & conferences were funded and facilitated by the Foundation to further enhance the skills & education of our hospital & health staff.

Numerous scholarships were provided for staff with Post-graduate studies.

HealthyMaking Queenslanders Australia’s Healthiest People

The Foundation is committed to promoting the prevention & control of illness within our community.

Support has been provided by the Foundation for public health programs aimed at cutting smoking, drinking alcohol, sun exposure & obesity.

FairGrowing a Workforce

The Foundation contributed $20,000 to the USQ Clinical Nursing Placement project and is working with the USQ to secure a Federal grant in excess of $2 million to further enhance this project and give nursing students every opportunity to be placed in our health services.

The Foundation has also committed $50,000 to the TULIP program at Toowoomba Hospital, again enhancingnursing placements.

The Foundation actively encourages & funds all streams of staff development with a view to up skilling, educating & then retaining the majority of that staff in our hospitals & health services.

VolunteersThe Foundation actively supports & funds the 350+ volunteers of the Toowoomba Hospital in many ways. Complimentary parking, staff room amenities, thank-you functions, Christmas gifts and funding the Guiding Stars; a group dedicated to showing people around the hospital campus.

4GR Give Me 5 for KidsThe 4GR Give Me 5 for Kids campaign has been an enormous success since its inception five years ago. Driven by the Radio 4GR Big Breakfast team of Lee&Lizzie,thisyear’seventrealisedawhopping $47,349 when most thought the effects of the floods on 10 January would see a much lesser amount raised. Over $250,000 has been raised in that time for the benefit of children’s health

at Toowoomba Hospital and the funds have been committed each year to buying priority items on the paediatric ‘wish list’.

St Ursula’s Students present funds to SCN Nurse Unit Manager Freda Coorey after a

successful fund raising day.

Even the littlest patients at the SCN put on the ‘long socks’ to support the unique fund raising

cycling event for the Special Care Nursery

We celebrated 10 years of ‘A Christmas Wish’ during 2010; an annual event that has raised in excess of $120,000 for the Toowoomba

Hospital Children’s Appeal.

When Toowoomba West Lions Club had their Christmas Lights damaged in the floods, a young group headed by Jess Wagner (left) and Chris Blakeley (right)

combined with Tomba’s Night Club to help out. Tomba’s manager Trevor Watts (2nd left) presents Toowoomba West Lions President Trevor Fitzgerald with the donation.

Each & every year, we can count on the Bunnings Toowoomba team to help out at theChildren’s Ward around Christmas time.

Downs Group Training & The Apprenticeship Company annually conduct a fund raising golf day to aid Young People at Risk. Over $75,000 has been raised since the inaugural event to assist young people in our community.
