An ambitious campaign launched by The Ottawa Hospital (TOH) Foundation last year has now surpassed the halfway point.
In April of 2022, the foundation launched the ‘Campaign to Create Tomorrow’ in support of the new Civic campus on Carling Avenue.
to date, $268-million of the $500-million goal has been raised, which marks 53.6 per cent.
“In the past year, we’ve seen so many families, individuals, and organizations make their largest philanthropic gifts ever – full stop,” says Tim Kluke, President and CEO of The Ottawa Hospital Foundation. “It’s a powerful example of how our city is ready to bring to life this vision to transform healthcare. While our campaign goal is ambitious,
and there’s still plenty of work to do, we know achieving our goal is possible. There is room for everyone in this campaign and our success to date shows the city is ready to make it happen.”
Also, with the first phase of construction underway, the chair of the campaign says a dream is becoming a reality.
“This is a critical moment I’d been waiting for – the reality of seeing work underway,” says Roger Greenberg. “It’s an exciting moment in time for this campaign, and I know it will energize our community’s engagement with what the future holds for healthcare.”
