Our Supporters
Without the support of donors, community groups and our corporate partners we would not have been able to achieve what we have. The generosity of individuals, groups & clubs together with the business community helped to build a Cancer Centre and three new consulting rooms and a treatment room for visiting Specialists.
The Colac Area Health Foundation is on a new journey with the Long Road Appeal raising funds for a brand new Wellbeing Centre for Colac Area Health. This facility will support those with cancer and other complex health conditions, as well as their families and carers.
Together, with the help and support of our generous community, we will build this centre. Our mission is to keep quality care close to home.

We receive generous support from private donors and community groups, and regularly publish our donor list in our "Giving Back" publications to acknowledge the support and assistance we receive.

Corporate Partners
Our corporate partners support Colac Area Health Foundation in a number of ways through event sponsorship and corporate donations. The generosity of the Corporate community to the Long Road Appeal enabled two major projects to become a reality – The Frank Minchinton Cancer Centre and Specialist Consulting Rooms.
One of our major fundraising events is the Annual Golf Day which is held around March each year. If you or your organisation are interested in discussing sponsorship for our Golf day, please contact the Foundation on 03 5232 5288 or email foundation@cah.vic.gov.au
