Mission Statement
The Mater Hospital Foundation is the official charity supporting the work of the Mater Misericordiae University Hospital (also known as the Mater Public Hospital), located in Dublin 7, in the North Inner City. The hospital is both a local acute and national specialist hospital for many serious illnesses. The foundation exists to give every patient and their loved ones, the very best care at the hospital. We fund projects that transform patient care and provide our doctors and nurses with the best life-saving equipment and facilities money can buy. We also invest in clinical research and ground-breaking innovations. We strive to make the ordinary, extraordinary for more than 420,000 patients who come through our doors each year - many in need of life-saving care.
