Words alone don’t seem enough when what you’ve been given is a steady presence during long nights. Expert care when the stakes were high. Kindness, dignity and compassion when needed most.
Champions of Care offers a meaningful way to say “thank you” — by honouring the caregivers who showed up for you or your loved one while ensuring exceptional care continues for others.
Whether you are a current patient, recovering from care, supporting a loved one or remembering someone you have lost, moments of exceptional care leave a lasting mark.
You may remember a nurse who never rushed you. A doctor who explained things clearly and gave you hope. A care team that had your family’s back every step of the way.
Champions of Care was created for these moments — when gratitude feels deep, personal and important to express.
When you make a Champions of Care donation, you will be asked to indicate if your gift is for an individual, a unit or care team, or the whole hospital site. There will be a place to leave an optional message for your Champion, which is passed along on your behalf.
The Foundation will provide the unit or care team indicated with a Champions of Care certificate, or a new seal to add to their existing certificate. For individuals, we will provide an enamel pin honouring them as a Champion of Care.
Many caregivers say these messages and certificates stay with them for years — reminding them why they chose this work and how much it matters.
While your care team is honoured, your donation goes where it is needed most.
Your generosity helps:
Your gratitude reaches far beyond one moment, helping shape the future of care for the whole team.
There is no right time, or right way, to express gratitude.
Champions of Care offers a simple, personal way to honour the care that mattered and to help ensure others have that same support when they need it most.

Your gratitude can make a difference for caregivers, for patients and for the future of care.
