The Ottawa Hospital Foundation has launched the historic $500 million Campaign to Create Tomorrow, a multi-year campaign to support the construction of a new state-of-the-art hospital on Carling Avenue, as well as world-leading medical research. It’s the largest ever fundraising campaign in our region’s history, representing an ambitious vision for the future of healthcare.
“I came from the private sector and was lacking fulfillment. My job was focused on the bottom-line – to make money for a corporation. The Foundation was a welcome change. I connect with the cause, and my work actually matters.”- Natasha De Sousa, Development Officer
The Campaign To Create Tomorrow already has overwhelming community support. Our team of fundraisers have raised $356m since launching the campaign 3 years ago, which includes some of the largest-ever donations in our city’s history.
