What we do
The Ottawa Hospital Foundation raises funds to support the critical work of The Ottawa Hospital. Much of this work began 100 years ago, when the Ottawa Civic Hospital welcomed its first patients and launched what would become a century of remarkable healthcare advances. Whether it’s tackling the most complex cases with extraordinary skill and compassion, or leading the way with groundbreaking research, we are proud to support The Ottawa Hospital and help create a better tomorrow for millions of Canadians every year.
Campaign to Create Tomorrow
The Campaign to Create Tomorrow is the largest fundraising campaign in Ottawa’s history. With an ambitious goal of $500 million, our campaign will help build a new campus of The Ottawa Hospital and take healthcare research to unprecedented heights.
This world-class academic healthcare centre will push our hospital to the top tier of healthcare and research worldwide.
We will become one of the most technologically advanced hospitals in the country, using the latest tools to provide the right care in the right space with the right provider.
From trauma care to cancer advancements to neuroscience, we will strengthen our critical services for patients across the region.
Through our unique and highly effective collaborative model where clinicians and researchers work side-by-side, we will bring more groundbreaking discoveries to patients in Ottawa and around the world.
