PUKEKOHE BIRTHING UNIT RENOVATION FUND

Let’s give back to a place that’s given so much

For more than 70 years, this small hospital has quietly played a big role in the story of our region.

It’s where generations of local families have welcomed their children into the world, supported by dedicated midwives and healthcare staff.

Today, the birthing units at Pukekohe Maternity Hospital are showing their age. The facilities are tired, outdated, and in need of renovation.

Together, our community has an opportunity to give something back to a place that has given so much to so many.

Campbell Tyson is proud to partner with the Middlemore Foundation to help raise funds to renovate the hospital’s two birthing suites — helping ensure future generations of Franklin families can welcome their babies into a safe, comfortable and modern environment.

Our Goal.

$100,000 to upgrade the two birthing suites.

Our immediate goal is to raise $100,000 to fund essential upgrades to the two birthing suites at Pukekohe Maternity Hospital.

These improvements will enhance the experience for mothers, babies and healthcare staff who care for them.

But this is only the beginning.

Pukekohe Hospital plays a vital role for families across Franklin, and there is potential to do even more. Every dollar raised helps improve this important community facility.

How you can help.

There are several ways our community can get involved and support the renovation of the Pukekohe birthing units.
