Help Elina raise money

For participating in 2019 Hamilton Marathon Road2Hope

My Story…

Upon discovering my grandmother's lung cancer diagnosis I wanted to make an impact by contributing to a foundation that is focused on innovative research initiatives for all healthcare patients. I'm not an avid runner, therefore this race will be a challenge along with providing a contribution to this amazing foundation. Hamilton Health Sciences Foundation provides vital funding to enable the best possible patient care. Donations help to fund medical equipment and patient amenities, innovative research initiatives, essential redevelopment of clinical care spaces, and the education and training of health care providers.

Description

Why do we need to raise funds?

Fundraising is an essential part of health care. Our objective is to transform health care by raising funds for:

Equipment and Patient Amenities

Research

Education

Renovations

Doesn’t the government provide the funding needed?

The government funds hospital salaries, operating costs and contributes to capital projects. Donors fund 100 per cent of the equipment used to diagnose, treat and care for patients – from replacing the most basic necessities to investing in sophisticated new technologies.

Why is my donation important?

Glance around any patient room or treatment area and you will see the impact of your donation. In addition to equipment, donors also support research programs, education for hospital staff and redevelopment.
