We are tremendously grateful for the support of the community, both individuals and organizations, that choose to invest in healthcare for our region.
Alectra
In the five years he’s been with Alectra, Blair Peberdy has seen a lot of growth at the utilities company. But, he insists, “everybody has to come along with that success” — including the people who live in the communities Alectra serves.
Tom and Karen Ehrlich
The couple has a cottage in Innisfil’s Big Bay Point neighbourhood but admit that, when they’re up north, they don’t usually wander farther than the well-marked trails at a nearby resort or a snowshoe outing on Lake Simcoe.
Kate and Sophie McKittrick
Kate and Sophie McKittrick are two strong young women with big aspirations. At just 16 and 14 years old, they’re already successful fundraisers who have their sights set on loftier goals. Inspired by their mother’s battle with Cancer, Kate and Sophie dedicated themselves to supporting world-class, life-saving care close to home. “At RVH, the doctors were so kind,” shared Kate. “They never gave up. They cared for our mom and for us.”
David and Catherine Hudson
They say home is where the heart is. Many Torontonians and people across Southern Ontario have their hearts in Simcoe Muskoka for much of the year. They live seasonally in this region, celebrating special occasions and making precious family memories. Their philanthropy grew from lemonade stands to a landmark $10 million gift, which will change the face of cancer care in Simcoe Muskoka.
Barrie Rotaract
A group of young philanthropists are getting behind the campaign to Keep Life Wild in Simcoe Muskoka with a $50,000 donation to RVH.
The Barrie Rotaract Club, made up of young professionals, aged 18-35, hopes that leading by example will inspire other young people to follow suit, committing to more accessible healthcare close to home.
The Chilton Team
Anne and Lance Chilton are in the business of making dreams come true.
As founders of The Chilton Team, RE/MAX Hallmark Chay Realty, they are dedicated to helping people find their dream home no matter how big they dream. But one request from their clients continues to make its way to the forefront: proximity to healthcare.
