IWK Foundation The IWK Foundation raises funds to support the urgent priority needs of the IWK Health Centre. To learn more about IWK Health, please visit www.iwkhealth.ca.

The IWK Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that raises funds to support IWK Health—the largest pediatric hospital and trauma centre in Atlantic Canada. IWK Health is also one of only two health centres in Canada that cares for both women and children. As the primary fundraising partner with IWK Health, we want to ensure Maritime women, children, and families needing the advanced and speci

alized care of IWK Health have access to the highest level of care possible. The funds raised through the generosity of our donor community help fund the IWK’s areas of greatest need, including purchasing new and advanced medical equipment, funding leading-edge research, and upgrading care spaces and technology. The IWK Foundation is guided by the Association of Fundraising Professionals Code of Ethics. We are committed to transparency and accountability to the public, our donors, and those who benefit from our fundraising activities.

Our final Power Hour of the day is generously sponsored by the Air Canada Foundation. 🥳

Right now, you can help support the purchase of Halo Bassinets for the Family Newborn Care Unit (FNCU).

Halo bassinets allow parents recovering from childbirth to keep their newborn close and can be easily positioned in ways that allow accessibility for parents right from their own hospital bed. The accessibility of the special bassinets encourages better and safer sleep for babies while also making it easier for parents to feed, soothe, and care for the newborn throughout the night – which helps parents rest easier too!

Join our dedicated group of monthly donors today and help purchase urgently needed equipment for the IWK.
