The Yee Hong Community Wellness Foundation is the fundraising, communications and public relations arm of the Yee Hong community, which raises funds to cover the operational expenses of services and programs of the Yee Hong Centre for Geriatric Care, and the capital to build new Centres as approved by the Board. To maintain the standard of care which benefits thousands of seniors, we need to raise $2.5 million every year.
As the population continues to age and the demand for geriatric care continues to increase, the waitlist for a Yee Hong bed has grown to over 6000 people with a wait time that can be as long as 10 years. The Ontario Government has approved Yee Hong for 800 additional beds in three new centres in Scarborough, Markham and Mississauga, virtually doubling our current capacity. For this we must raise at least $80 million of the total $300 million cost to realize this plan to cater to the aging population. Join us as Yee Hong expands services to more seniors.
