Every kid deserves to have a childhood.
It’s hard to be a kid when pain and medical treatments are part of daily life and home is a hospital bed. Let’s do what’s right for kids. Let’s give every sick child their childhood back.
Hospitals are where kids are fighting their toughest battles every day. By supporting 13 of Canada’s children’s hospitals, we’re showing kids that we’re in it with them.
Passionate. Bold. Loud. Our partners are corporations and organizations who aren’t afraid to stand up and make a statement for kids’ health.
Get ready to play. Take to the dancefloor. Make a miracle happen. Our Signature Programs offer inspiring ways to make an impact on your local community and show kids we’re all here for them.
We’re here for the kids because they
need all of us.
Our mission is simple. We’re here to stand up for sick children.
Our Canadian children’s hospitals work together to find better ways to give kids more of their childhood back. How? By shortening their stays through research that improves treatments and finds cures, developing technologies that bring the latest knowledge, and creating care facilities designed for kids and their families first.
We’re here to believe that it’s possible to end childhood illness and disease. And we’re here to help make change come sooner.
For the kids, for healthcare, for Canada.
By helping to raise funds for 13 of Canada’s children’s hospitals, we’re the largest non-government funder of child health in Canada. But we haven’t done it alone. We work with partners, donors and people like you.
With your help, epic change is possible
We’re making progress. Change is happening. And you can help accelerate it.

Every Child Matters.
In June, let’s celebrate kids of all backgrounds and orientation. Their lives are precious, and they deserve equitable, empathetic and high-quality care. Join us in celebrating Pride month and National Indigenous History Month.
When the Sobey Family and Sobeys Inc. partnered with Canada’s Children’s Hospital Foundations (CCHF) on child and youth mental health, we were grateful to have them by our side. They’re helping Canada’s children’s hospitals, like funding programs at the Janeway Children’s Hospital Foundation to support kids who experience abuse or violence.
June is Spina Bifida Awareness Month. Our patient ambassador Quinn was diagnosed with meningocele, one of three main types of spina bifida, a condition that develops a defect in the formation of the spine.
Despite all the pain she has experienced through her surgeries, Quinn’s positive attitude continues to shine through.
CCHF is committed to fostering an inclusive, accessible environment, where all employees, stakeholders and the people we serve feel valued, respected and supported. We are dedicated to building a workforce that reflects the diversity of our stakeholders and communities in which we live and serve.
