We see the finish line Thank You Niagara


With the tremendous support of our Niagara community we are nearing our $40 Million Campaign goal!

It’s your time to be part of the most momentous undertaking in the history of healthcare in the Niagara Region and help the It’s Our Time Campaign cross the finish line.

Your donation will improve access to quality healthcare and make Niagara a leader in the vital areas of cancer care, kidney dialysis, and treatment of mental illness and heart disease.

its time to make history

 
 
 
   
 

Leadership for the Niagara-wide campaign is provided by volunteers from every segment of Niagara where an NHS site exists, and is structured into three teams - Niagara Falls, North Niagara and South Niagara.

Each team is raising funds to support the development of the regional Walker Family Cancer Centre, mental health centre and heart investigation unit at the new healthcare complex, as well as new equipment at their respective sites related to the treatment of cancer, cardiac, chronic kidney and/or mental health treatment, as well as other upgrades and improvements at their respective sites.
