Government funding only covers the basics of health care, and fundraising is critical to ensuring UHN can deliver world-class care and get revolutionary research off the ground. Support from past patients who have experienced care here plays an integral role in enabling UHN Foundation to raise much-needed additional funds for our hospitals, including Toronto Rehab.
The practice of soliciting past patients is a common and regulated process governed by the Personal Health Information Protection Act (PHIPA). No personal health information is shared with the Foundation, only your name and address is provided to us by the hospital as regulated under PHIPA.
Under PHIPA, you have the right to request no future fundraising appeals be sent to you. To make such a request please contact the Foundation at 416-603-5300 or
foundation@uhn.ca, providing your full name and address to ensure we can remove you from all future mailings.
