We are deeply saddened to learn that Salah Bachir has passed away. Salah was a remarkable philanthropist, community builder, advocate, and longtime friend of St. Joseph's Health Centre.

As a dialysis patient himself, Salah understood firsthand the challenges patients face and was deeply committed to ensuring care teams had the resources and tools needed to deliver exceptional care. Salah's generosity extended far beyond his own giving. He inspired friends, colleagues, and community partners to join him in supporting St. Joe’s, helping to raise significant funds that enhanced care for countless patients. In recognition of this extraordinary commitment, our two dialysis centres proudly bear the name of Salah and his husband Jacob.

Through his care journey, Salah came to deeply value the physicians, nurses, and staff of St. Joe’s and the care they provide every day. He wanted the warmth and compassion he experienced here to be reflected throughout the hospital and community. His generosity helped bring holiday lighting to St. Joe’s, a tradition that continues to brighten our campus each winter. His impact extended far beyond this cherished initiative. Through the Salah Bachir Show galas he organized and hosted, he raised millions of dollars to advance critical projects throughout the hospital, including plans for a new patient tower.

Just this week, we marked the opening of the Bachir/Yerex Garden at the front of St. Joe’s. Designed as a warm and inviting space for patients, families, and staff, it reflects the same spirit of compassion, generosity, and community that Salah brought to everything he did. As one of many spaces he helped bring to life at St. Joe’s, the garden will remain a lasting legacy and a beautiful tribute to both Salah and Jacob.

Salah’s life was generously lived and so incredibly appreciated by everyone here at St. Joe’s. We send our deepest condolences to Jacob, Salah’s family, and everyone whose lives he touched. We will miss him.

— Maria Dyck, President and CEO of St. Joseph’s Health Centre Foundation

A special thank you to our Presenting Sponsor, BMO Financial Group, our Expo Sponsor, Rexall Drugstore, and all our generous sponsors for helping make this record-breaking year possible!

“Today, on National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we reflect on the traumatic history of residential schools and the loss of those children who never returned home. We also take time to honour the survivors and seek to understand how we can address the legacy of systemic racism that shapes our society today, not just in health care but across systems.

As health care providers, we see firsthand how this painful legacy still impacts our patients. Disparities exist across nearly every major measure of health, including outcomes of mental health, maternal and paediatric health, preventable cancers and even average lifespan.”

Read a message from Roberta Pike, Director of Indigenous Wellness, Reconciliation and Partnerships at Unity Health Toronto, and Altaf Stationwala, President and CEO of Unity Health Toronto, on our commitment to Truth and Reconciliation.

It truly takes a community, and we saw that on full display at the 23rd Annual Fall Classic Golf Tournament in support of St. Joe’s! We are so grateful to our golfers, sponsors, volunteers, and donors who came together to Build Extraordinary for patients, families, and Toronto’s entire west end and beyond.

Together, we had our best year ever, raising over $623,500! And thanks to a generous matching gift, the funds raised will be doubled — meaning more than $1.2 million will help purchase priority equipment to support patients today and in the new patient care tower.

A special thank you goes to our Presenting Sponsor, Chart Construction Management Inc, and our Extraordinary Sponsors, EllisDon Corporation, Honeywell, and Roadsport Auto Group. Your incredible support helped make this record-breaking year possible!
