Catholic Hospital and Aged Care needs grow – CDF meets the challenge! More Deposits are required.


Proposed development at St Frances Xavier Cabrini Hospital, Brighton (pictured left) includes 88 in-patient beds, 8 consulting suites, 4 operating theatres, 21-chair day oncology unit, expanded diagnostic services and 180 basement car parks. This project, made possible by your CDF investment, is expected to be completed by mid year 2009.



In the financial year 2007-2008 CDF lent $83.5 million to fund projects for St Frances Xavier Cabrini Hospital, Catholic Homes for the Elderly and Mercy Health and Aged Care. Lending on such a scale to meet the needs of Catholic health and aged care was unprecedented in the 52-year history of the Fund. According to Guy Beale, CDF Business Development Manager, demand for Catholic hospital and aged care services and low cost finance for capital projects will continue to be strong. Catholic families benefit from the strong commitment to human life which is at the core of Catholic health institutions. “CDF needs more deposits in order to meet this ongoing demand,” Mr Beale added.

That increasing numbers of Catholic health and aged care providers are forging commercial relationships with Catholic Development Funds across Australia is not surprising. CDF offers Catholic institutions high quality financial products and services at competitive interest rates and personalised customer service. At the heart of the matter both organisations are like-minded, drawn together in a mission of Faith and service to the Church.
