What Guides Us
To be a trusted leader in philanthropy, fostering excellence in healthcare by uniting our community, supporting advanced medical services, and attracting skilled professionals. We strive to ensure access to state-of-the-art equipment and maintain high-quality healthcare close to home.
To enhance community healthcare by securing grants, partnering with donors, and raising funds for essential medical equipment. We work to bridge funding gaps, ensuring our facilities are equipped to deliver exceptional care closer to home.
Our Story
The Foundation was started by members of our community. Since then, we have worked alongside Northern Health, the provincial government and local businesses to close the gaps that public funding leaves behind.
Kitimat sits between the Coast Mountains and the Douglas Channel, and reaching specialist care often means a long trip. Our goal is to bring more services home, so families can spend less time on the road and more time together.
Over three decades we have helped fund diagnostic imaging equipment, palliative care spaces, surgical upgrades and training programs that help attract and keep health care professionals in our community.
