Get to Know Us

The Moose Jaw Health Foundation is a non-profit organization managed by a volunteer local Board of Directors. The challenge of fundraising to aid in the establishment and enhancement of excellent health care services was accepted in August, 1986. Since that time over $38 million dollars has been raised to enhance equipment and services at the Moose Jaw Union Hospital and the Dr. F.H. Wigmore Regional Hospital. The health of our friends and our families depends on the generous contributions received from our loyal donors and distributed by the Moose Jaw Health Foundation each year.

The Foundation is committed to the highest ethical standards and our practices ensure that donor dollars positively impact direct patient care..
