Help us detect cancers earlier.
Your support is life saving.
Early detection of breast cancer is critical.
That’s why the Foundation is working with a generous donor to match donations and help bring not one, but two mammography units to CGMH to detect breast cancer earlier, reduce extra testing, and ultimately, save more lives.
Double your impact.
Thanks to generous donors Teri Yamada & Doug Moxon, every dollar donated to the Tree of Life campaign until Dec 31st, will be matched, up to $375,000, to fund the purchase of the second mammography unit.
Our single mammography unit currently performs over 7,000 mammograms each year—whereas most hospitals handle 2,500 exams per unit. With the Ontario Breast Screening Program expansion, we anticipate a significant increase in demand, and therefore we aim to purchase two new mammography units to serve our growing community needs.
90% of all medical equipment & technology is funded through community support of our Foundation.
Despite what you might believe, the Government does not fully fund healthcare in Ontario. At the Collingwood General & Marine Hospital, over 90% of all medical equipment & technology is funded through community support of our Foundation. Our caring and generous community ensures that our healthcare teams can continue to deliver fast, accurate diagnosis and exceptional care.
