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.

    A hospital is about so much more than just physical buildings where care is provided. It’s about people inside those walls who work hard every day to care for their community.

    One of the first times our donor Cindi Sonnenberg came to Niagara Health was when her son, Kiefer 10 years old at the time was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. "He said to me: as long as I don't need needles, I will be fine. It broke my heart. But everyone at the hospital was so kind and thoughtful, and considerate. It made this very scary moment for my son and our family so much easier to bear."
