Stevenson Memorial Hospital Foundation

What Stevenson Memorial Hospital Foundation does

Stevenson Memorial Hospital Foundation is a registered Canadian charity (number 119173235 RR0001) and the sole fundraising entity for Stevenson Memorial Hospital, a community hospital in Alliston, Ontario, serving New Tecumseth and South Simcoe. Incorporated as a nonprofit foundation with 39 employees and a board-governed structure, the Foundation raises funds exclusively for the hospital's redevelopment, equipment acquisition, and service expansion through individual donations, major gifts, corporate sponsorships, community events (notably the annual Summer Soirée), and cause-marketing partnerships with regional and national brands including Tim Hortons, McDonald's, Canadian Tire, Trillium Ford Lincoln, and Loblaw.

The Foundation is currently executing an $80 million capital campaign to support a major hospital redevelopment that broke ground in March 2026. Campaign economics are amplified by a $4 million matching-gift program from the Morningview Foundation ('Every Dollar Counts') and a network of recurring regional donors and auxiliaries. Operating impact is anchored in serving a community of 73,000+ residents projected to exceed 100,000 by 2031, with hospital volumes of approximately 23,048 outpatient clinic visits, 17,408 diagnostic imaging X-rays, and 14,177 inpatient days reported for 2026.

The business model is community-led philanthropy: revenue derives entirely from donations and contributions rather than commercial sales. GTM is hybrid, combining direct giving (online, mail, phone, in-person at the Alliston office at 200 Fletcher Crescent), community events, a major gifts program, and corporate cause-marketing campaigns. The Foundation is PIPEDA-compliant for donor privacy, follows the ImagineCanada Ethical Fundraising Code, and issues charitable tax receipts across all donation channels.
