About Us
The Whitby General Hospital Foundation was incorporated on February 16, 1979. The purpose of the Foundation was to receive and maintain funds which were to be applied from time to time for the furtherance of the purposes in the field of health and/or related social and educational purposes. Primary consideration of the funds was to promote and benefit the Whitby General Hospital.
In October 1999, following the official amalgamation of the Lakeridge Health sites, the Foundation applied to the Ministry of Consumer and Corporate affairs to officially change its name to Lakeridge HealthWhitbyFoundation.
In an effort support the Regional programs that have been sited at Lakeridge Health Whitby, the Foundation has begun an extensive fundraising initiative to raise funds to support these programs.
