Welcome

At the Niagara Health Foundation, we raise and steward funds to support high-quality patient care, education and research at Niagara Health.

We fundraise exclusively for Niagara Health and bring people across the region together for a single purpose – to help our local hospitals and their healthcare teams deliver the best possible healthcare, right here in Niagara.

It is our vision that we become the charity of choice that inspires our communities to invest in extraordinary healthcare for the people of Niagara.
