Due to privacy considerations, it is a policy of CHIRF not to identify individuals who contribute as we thank people individually where possible. We are a small community and all donations are received gratefully. However, with their permission, we acknowledge the following individuals and organisations:
- The generator was purchased in part from a generous donation by Mrs. Dianne Boddy.
- The generator was installed without charge by Beau Buchanan, Mick Wyatt and Kevin Chase.
- RIPERN (Rural and Isolated Practice Endorsed Registered Nurse) scholarships were made possible through the efforts of the Mallacoota Fundraising group led by Mariska and Martin Ascher, who produced and sold calendars and bags. In 2016-2017 they raised over $10,000.
In 2017-2018 the fund raising group raised $13,000 supporting us via a charity auction, to purchase an ultrasound machine
