UHN’s accomplishments to date are a testament to incredible talent – and the community of donors who make their work possible.
We work closely with hospital leadership to identify programs and initiatives that need urgent funding, so you know your donation will always go where it’s needed most.
OUR CREED
Knowledge. It empowers us to make lives better.
It is the passion that comes from pursuing the truth and the courage that comes from knowing it.
Knowledge is the comfort and compassion and the clarity and capability that come from experience.
Knowledge creates a thirst for more knowledge, so it is also innovation and progress.
When knowledge presents us with a solution, it is discovery and victory; when it does not, it is determination.
Knowledge is health. It feeds vigorous minds, it protects and mends the body, and it bolsters the spirit.
Knowledge is everything and knowledge can do anything.
In fact, knowledge built University Health Network – not the buildings, but the hearts and minds of those driven to transform lives.
This is what knowledge can do.
