The NHS team are proud to support a number of charities that are doing fantastic work to help people in need.
Our workplace giving program allows NHS staff to chip in a few dollars from their wage and donate to a charity of choice and NHS matches their donation dollar for dollar. So far we have collectively donated over $100,000 to a variety of worthy charities through this program.
We also assist other charities outside the workplace giving program. If you are a charity and wish to apply for assistance please contact Amanda McKee at NHS.
