Delta Hospital and Community Health Foundation

What Delta Hospital and Community Health Foundation does

Delta Hospital and Community Health Foundation is a Canadian non-profit charitable organization founded in 1988 that raises and disburses philanthropic capital for the Delta Hospital Campus of Care in Delta, British Columbia. The foundation serves as the designated fundraising partner for a 58-bed acute care hospital, the 92-bed Mountain View Manor, and the Irene Thomas Hospice, collectively serving a population of over 100,000 across North Delta, Ladner, and Tsawwassen. Its sole institutional beneficiary is Delta Hospital, operated by the Fraser Health Authority, and the foundation also funds community health programs including mental health and addictions grants and youth services.

The foundation operates a portfolio of donation programs including one-time donations, monthly giving, tribute giving, legacy giving, securities donations, and a payroll lottery for Fraser Health staff, alongside recurring signature events such as the annual Moonlight Gala and Delta Health Classic Golf Tournament. Active capital campaigns include an $8 million Endoscopy Suite (boosted by a $1 million Jim Pattison matching gift announced April 2026), an $18 million MRI services project (completion expected December 2028), and the $18.25 million Beedie Long-Term Care Centre campaign — the largest fundraising effort in the foundation's history. Since 1988 the foundation has raised over $100 million cumulatively.

The business model is event-driven and community-led, relying on a 9-person professional staff, an extensive volunteer network, corporate sponsors (including Tsawwassen Springs, Heatherbrae Builders, Century Group), and major donors such as the Beedie Foundation and Jim Pattison. Capital campaigns are conducted in coordination with the Province of British Columbia (which committed $179.7 million to the Beedie project) and Fraser Health, with the foundation operating in a co-funding role rather than as the primary healthcare operator. Distribution of funds flows through Fraser Health for hospital equipment and capital projects, and through direct community grants for mental health, youth, and addictions programming.
