Supporting outstanding patient care has been the PRHC Foundation’s purpose, promise and passion for more than 30 years. Our task is simple – we work with the community to help make great care possible at Peterborough Regional Health Centre. How? By helping donors invest in our hospital, making sure our doctors, nurses and staff have the equipment they need to deliver great care. You make great healthcare possible. Our health is truly our most precious gift. Those of us who don’t need healthcare on any given day certainly know someone who does - often someone close to us, too often with serious health issues. Please help us invest in the new medical equipment and technology that makes great care possible. The very best hospitals rely on the generosity of many donors from all walks of live. It’s vital that our health care professionals have access to the equipment and technology they need to provide great care to every patient, every day. With your support, they will.

The Halifax Sexual Health Centre believes that healthy sexuality is positive and life-affirming for all people at all stages of life. Sexual health is a vital component of personal health determined by the social and economic environment, the physical environment, personal knowledge and available capacities and health services.

Equally important, everyone has the right to make informed personal choices about their sexual and reproductive health, free from the imposition of external authorities. The Halifax Sexual Health Centre is an organization that is pro-choice; inclusive and respectful of diversity; youth-positive; gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered positive; focused on the needs of our clients and community; and respectful of client confidentiality.

The primary purpose of the Queen Elizabeth II Hospital Foundation is to enhance the quality of health care in our community by raising money for the needs of our Regional Secondary QEII Hospital in Grande Prairie, Alberta. The Foundation plays a critical role in funding for essential specialized equipment, major projects, patient care programs and education, many of which have no other funding. We are a vital link between the many regional residents and the QEII Hospital. Due to our continuously challenging health care climate, the Foundation must make every effort to help our hospital meet the growing needs of its community as well as the needs of our Regional residents. As an organization entrusted with the stewardship of donor contributions, we strive to match the wishes of our donors with the priority needs of our Hospital. If a donor wishes to support a specific program or department of the Hospital, the Foundation ensures that the gift is used as intended.

The Dream Factory was founded as The Rainbow Society in Winnipeg in 1983 and was the first organization of its kind in Canada. The Dream Factory is a non-profit charitable organization dedicated to making once in a life-time dreams come true for Manitoba children suffering from a life-threatening illness. We are a Manitoba based organization so all money raised stays in our Province to help Manitoba children. The Dream Factory's goal is to say YES to every single dream child. We believe that these dreams should be experienced not only by the suffering child, but also by their immediate family whenever possible, without financially burdening the family. The most popular dream request is to visit Mickey & Minnie in the Magical Kingdom of Disney World, however, dreams are only limited to the child's imagination. A dream come true means so much to a young child who has already endured more in their young lives, than most adults.
