To donate to EPC, select the amount and then choose where to direct your donation. You can choose from:

  1. General Donation - Your gift will be used across all areas of client care.
  2. Stay at Home Appeal - Donate now!  Your gift will fund the key areas of EPC that are the most essential for clients to stay at home. Over the last 2 years, demand for EPC's services has increased at a higher rate than our government funding with many more clients being cared for by EPC. Many of our clients wish to stay at home for as long as they can, instead of going to a hospital or hospice, and we work hard to help fulfill this wish. 
  3. Equipment for Home Appeal - Donate now!  Your gift will go towards the cost of securing specialised equipment for our clients to use in their home so they can avoid going to a hospice or hospital and die at home if that is their wish. EPC assists families to access this equipment, which is often urgently required and sometimes hard to source on short notice.
    The 'Equipment for Home Appeal' will help EPC to:
    1. Purchase vital equipment for client use, so that it is readily on hand,
    2. Maintain, repair, store and clean our equipment, and
    3. Replenish stocks of essential, everyday equipment that are required by EPC nurses to take to client visits.
    We aim to raise $60K to fund this important area of client need. (Note: EPC cannot accept donated second hand equipment.) 
  4. Overnight Respite Nurse Appeal - Donate now! Your gift will go towards the cost of providing a specialist nurse overnight for clients that are terminal to give the carer time to rest and so the client can stay at home, and avoid having to go to a hospice or hospital. 

EPC cares for those who have been diagnosed with a terminal condition, with little or no prospect of cure, and for whom the primary treatment goal is quality of life. We also work with and support their carers. Our services are delivered in the clients' home and are free-of-charge*.

Thank you for making a difference to those living at home with a terminal illness.
