TOHA is lead by an incredible group of volunteers dedicated to in-hospital fundraising to support essential hospital services and programs across all 3 Ottawa campuses.
We raise funds through sales at hospital gift shops, a breast pump rental program, book and art sales and other innovative fundraising opportunities within the campuses.
Since 2011, TOHA has donated over $13 million to The Ottawa Hospital.
Large Capital/Equipment
Proceeds from gift shops and programs are donated to The Ottawa Hospital to purchase critical equipment, including a MRI, ER trauma bay and Mobil Arm-C unit.
General Equipment
Proceeds also purchase general equipment, including waiting room televisions, tablets, patient alarm clocks, and other patient support equipment.
Hospital Services
Your support helps fund our programs: the emergency clothing cupboard, breast pump rentals, new mother layette kits, and gift cards for groceries upon discharge.
Bursaries & Research
Proceeds also fund annual nursing bursaries, which support nursing staff to continue their education and enhance capacity at the hospital.

It was an action-packed first year!
It was also a challenging year: the pandemic restricted traffic in the hospital, significantly reducing our revenues, limiting access to volunteers, and placing an unprecedented burden on hospital staff.
But we moved our meetings online, we kept our shops open, and we continued to deliver existing and new support to patients and the hospital community.
