Donor Recognition

Lakeridge Health Foundation invests in the equipment, technology, education, and research necessary to pinpoint and treat health problems quickly, and accurately for Durham Region families. Only with the generosity of our donors are new investments in our Hospitals possible.

With donor support, Lakeridge Health Foundation is able to provide funding for critical needs throughout our Hospitals. To thank the generosity of donors throughout our community, we recognize charitable acts through our donor walls, publications, and more. If you are interested in learning more, contact Steven MacDonald.

Donor Walls

In 2018, Lakeridge Health Foundation transformed the way we recognize donors and brought the fabric of our generous community to life by installing brand new donor walls at both the Oshawa and Whitby Hospital sites. These bright walls showcase how our tightly woven community has come together to support local health care.

Donors who have generously donated $10,000 or more, either at one time or cumulatively, are recognized on our donor walls.

Oshawa Main Lobby: Spanning the entire east wall of our Oshawa Hospital lobby, our cumulative giving donor wall recognizes donors who have supported areas throughout the Oshawa and Whitby Hospital sites.

Durham Regional Cancer Centre: Two donor walls in the DRCC main and lower lobbies feature our most generous supporters to cancer care. In the main lobby, those making a gift of $10,000 or more to cancer care priorities will find their name listed on our newest donor wall.

In the lower lobby, a historical wall recognizing those who gave to the Heroes of Hope Campaign that built our renowned Cancer Centre are acknowledged.

Whitby Hospital: Our specialized Whitby Hospital has an incredible following of community champions and donors. Those who direct their gifts of $10,000 or more to our Whitby site are featured on this wall.

In-Hospital Naming

Generous donors, and their families, have the opportunity to be recognized in-Hospital with select naming of rooms, clinical spaces and event wings at Lakeridge Health.

In-Hospital naming opportunities are limited and have a term of twenty years. Donors who donate $25,000 or more qualify for physical in-hospital naming opportunities in accordance with Lakeridge Health's recognition policy.
