About us
Care beyond cure.
Thuna Foundation exists so that no one facing serious illness — and no family caring for them — has to face it alone.
Our story
What “thuna” means
Thuna means support — to stand beside someone. That single word holds our whole idea: people supporting people, at the moments when support matters most.
When illness is serious, families are asked to carry things no family should carry alone — pain that needs managing, questions that need answering, days that need gentleness. Palliative care answers that need. It is care that goes beyond cure: comfort, dignity, and companionship, for as long as they are needed.
We bring that care home — because home is where people want to be, surrounded by the people and places they love.
“Palliative care for a brighter tomorrow.”
“A gentler world is possible.”

Compassion
We lead with empathy — in every visit, every conversation, every small kindness.
