Mission Statement

Our Hospice offers specialist palliative care services, at both inpatient and community level. Our Education Centre offers University and other courses, placement and conference facilities.
About This Cause
Marymount supports approximately 3,000 families each year in the Cork area. Marymount relies on a fundraising income in the region of €3million each year to maintain and further develop its services. The people of Cork has been exceptionally supportive in the past and we look forward to this support continuing into the future. Marymount's fundraising efforts are led by a small fundraising team who are supported by many volunteers including the Friends of Marymount. Some large events are centrally organised by our own staff and volunteers - eg Sunflower day, coffee morning, Light Up a Life, car draw etc, but the majority of funds come from events ran by third parties, many of whom have had a friend or loved one who have benefited from our care. Apart from their ongoing support of the hospital & hospice The Friends contributed in excess of €23 million towards the €56 million cost of the new facility at Curraheen. The hospital and The Friends will forever be indebted to their many loyal supporters for making that project possible.
