Special Occasion Giving
Celebrate by Supporting Healthcare
Presence instead of presents; a wonderful way to honour someone special. Make a donation to honour someone who is celebrating a special occasion, such as a wedding anniversary or birthday. You will receive a tax receipt for your generous gift, and we will send a card with your special message to the person(s) being honoured.

Amazing at the Alex
Honour an Amazing Staff Member
Honour someone who made a meaningful difference in your life while at the Royal Alexandra Hospital. Maybe it was a caregiver such as a physician or nurse. Perhaps it was one of our cheerful and helpful support staff in housekeeping or patient transport. When patients or their family members recognize outstanding care through a donation back to our hospital, it is incredibly motivating to all of us.
