Markham Stouffville Hospital Foundation

We exist to enable the growth of Oak Valley Health's Markham Stouffville Hospital. Together, we can bring a lifetime of care closer to home.

Due to the ongoing Canada Post strike,
DONATE ONLINE at mshf.on.ca or CALL us at (905) 472-7059. We are a supportive hand for our community and our hospital, Markham Stouffville Hospital (MSH). MSH is one of Ontario’s leading community hospitals serving Canada’s most diverse population in one of its fastest growing regions. Caring for over 437,000 patients each year, with 354 beds, redeveloped facilities, excellent clinical programs and leading health technology, MSH proudly provides patient care that uniquely combines the scope of a large hospital with the warm and personal touch that only a community hospital can offer. MSH is honoured to care for the more than 450,000 residents of Markham, Stouffville, Uxbridge, Richmond Hill, eastern York Region, north Durham and north Scarborough. Government can’t fund all life-saving equipment and top priority needs. Generous donor support is the reason our growing and aging community can count on exceptional care close to home, today, and for generations to come.

Stacy DiPasquale’s life took an unexpected turn when she trusted her instincts and sought answers for a concern she couldn’t ignore.

A busy mom of two, Stacy turned to Oak Valley Health’s Markham Stouffville Hospital, where she received an aggressive stage 3 breast cancer diagnosis and quickly found herself surrounded by a care team ready to take action.

As Stacy continues her treatment at The Shakir Rehmatullah Cancer Centre, she is using her voice to encourage early detection and regular screening, especially for those with a family history of breast cancer.

In recognition of World Cancer Day, stories like Stacy’s remind us how access to cancer care and support can make all the difference during life’s most difficult moments.
