All the hospice services are charities and rely heavily on donations for their income. Yet funds come from a variety of sources, as indicated below:
Hope House : each patient pays the equivalent of US $1 per day. Support has also come from the Catholic Bishop's Forum which agreed to pay administrative costs for a period of 6 months
Swaziland Hospice at Home : is subvented by the government and also receives funds from its international partners including, Friends of Swaziland Hospice at Home (UK)
Parish Nursing : is supported by a grant of US $273,000 over a three year period from inception by the Bristol Myers-Squibb Company
Salvation Army : the Rotary Club of Mbabane has supported the salaries of the medical staff and continues to give periodic assistance. The clinic charges a fee for medicines and is self funding in this respect. Nursing, counselling and home-based care is free of charge, supported by charitable donations. Two international donors provide support for orphans and assistance also comes from the Southern African AIDS Training Programme (Canadian Public Health Association).
