The role of the Health Foundation is to provide fundraising support to Nambour, Caloundra, Maleny and now Gympie hospitals along with local ancillary services. As a statutory body the Health Foundation is subject to the provisions of the Financial Accountability Act 2009 and the Financial and Performance Management Standard 2009 and subordinate legislation. The Foundation is audited annually by external auditors representing the Queensland Audit Office and the Auditor General. Wishlist is endorsed by the Australian Taxation Office as a Deductible Gift Recipient (a Health Promotion Charity), an Income Tax Exempt Charity under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997. It is endorsed for GST (Goods and Services Tax) concessions under a New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999 (Cth) and it is exempted under the Fringe Benefits Tax Assessment Act 1986 (Cth). THE ROLE OF THE BOARD The Sunshine Coast Health Foundation, now known as Wishlist is governed by a voluntary Board which is responsible for the overall strategic direction of the organisation, overseeing it’s operations and establishing policies and procedures. The Board and management have been entrusted with the responsibility of ensuring that monies provided by donors, sponsors and the general public are efficiently managed. Board members serve voluntarily and without remuneration. Directors are appointed by the Governor in Council. THE ROLE OF THE BOARD INCLUDES: • Maintaining high levels of accountability to our stakeholders and external regulators • Monitoring the performance of the Manager • Raising awareness of the organisation within the community • Ensuring compliance with statutory, financial, social and corporate governance responsibilities • Providing strategic direction and developing, assessing and approving strategies, policies, plans and budgets • Assessing and approving applications for equipment, education, research and service support as part of our $1million annual funding commitment to local Qld Health services • Monitoring risk and ensuring the presence of adequate risk management controls and reporting procedures. • Ensuring the Foundation acts legally, ethically, responsibly and openly. Board members participate in one or more of the four sub-committees that meet on a monthly basis. Finance & Governance Committee This Committee has the joint responsibility for oversight of the financial performance and corporate governance of the Foundation. It reviews the organisation’s financial reports on a monthly basis and reports to the by monthly meeting of the Board. The maintenance of effective internal controls and oversight of all Wishlist contractual matters (including Nambour Hospital Car Parking), conduct of performance reviews and the management of the internal audit programme are all key responsibilities. Project Committee Quarterly rounds of funding applications are assessed by the Project Committee and recommendations are made to the Board. The Committee approves applications under $10,000 but board approval is required for applications above $10,000. By recommending projects to the board this committee may determine the future direction of Wishlist fundraising efforts. The Project committee is also responsible for determining the Board’s Forward Focus each year, which this year remains as Healthy Aging. Marketing Committee The Marketing Committee develops & oversees the marketing strategy of Wishlist and offers guidance and direction to the Fundraising Marketing Coordinator, The Committee has a particular focus on major fundraising projects and in terms of marketing strategy related to corporate alliance and the protection of the Wishlist brand. Research Committee The Research Committee is devised of representatives from the Sunshine Coast Health Foundation, Sunshine Coast - Wide Bay Health Service and academic representatives from the tertiary partners. The Committee assesses research applications and then makes recommendation to the Wishlist Board for funding of selected research initiatives from the annual $150,000 research budget. MANAGEMENT The Board delegates responsibility for implementing strategies approved by the Board and day-to-day management to the Wishlist Manager, who in turn reports to the Board at monthly committee meetings and bi-monthly board meetings.

Total funds generated by Wishlist’s fundraising efforts this year totalled $858,300. While this figure is short of last years efforts, it is a very positive result. Revenue generated from Nambour Hospital’s car park exceeded last year by nearly 15%, resulting in profits from the carpark up by $70,000. Net proceeds from the carpark, interest income and sale of obsolete district equipment more than covered the Wishlist’s operating expenses with excess funds of $260,000 available to be attributed to our $937,000 spend on District needs. $114,000 was raised by two major events set to feature prominently on the Coast’s social calendar each year, the Wishlist Spring Carnival Gala and Exclusive 300 Club Melbourne Cup function. We’re very grateful to the committees of these outstanding events, comprised of the Coast’s most influential and generous business people, for not only the financial gain created by their work but the priceless opportunities created for our organisation each time we’re given the chance to showcase our wide range of causes to the community. Westpac has embraced the new alliance and the team’s enthusiasm for the opportunities that lie ahead for our organisations and the Coast community is increasingly evident with every business networking and promotional opportunity they create. Reed Charity House continues to support Nambour Hospital, an outstanding example of what can be achieved by a proactive and generous community. We thank the Australian Red Cross and their many volunteers for managing the accommodation facility and ensuring it’s impact on our operations is minimal. We continue to fundraise for the ramp linking the
