Welcome

Niagara Health Foundation invites you to join our annual Celebration of Lights to celebrate recovery, support healing and honour someone special. When you make a donation to the Celebration of Lights, every dollar raised stays right here in Niagara and goes towards urgently needed equipment at our local hospitals.

When you make a gift of $50 or more, you can add the name of a loved one to a paper light bulb or our virtual tree to cheer them on in their recovery or to celebrate their memory.
