Without your support,
we would not be able to help the thousands of community members who look to the Saanich Peninsula Hospital & Healthcare Foundation to champion improved healthcare.
This section is dedicated to all of the donors, volunteers, sponsors and community partners – your peers – who give kindly of their time and money to support the Saanich Peninsula Hospital & Healthcare Foundation. Each has a unique story and relationship with the Foundation, and we are honoured to consider them partners as we continue to promote healthcare excellence for the Saanich Peninsula and Southern Gulf Island communities.
There are so many ways you can get involved with the Saanich Peninsula Hospital & Healthcare Foundation. Love to volunteer? Join us for one of our exciting annual events, or even help around our offices. Do you want your community to understand your business’ commitment to corporate social responsibility? Sponsor an event through our Commerce for Care program, or even consider creating a Corporate Matching Gift program to bolster your own staff’s philanthropic efforts.
We are always excited to collaborate with businesses and individuals who have great ideas and a passion for making a difference. Please consider becoming a stakeholder of the Saanich Peninsula Hospital & Healthcare Foundation to support our efforts to keep the landscape of healthcare on the peninsula vibrant.
Commerce
For Care
Corporate donations help take the pressure off Foundation operating costs. Whether sponsoring our Summer Student Co-op Program, a bursary for one of the hospital staff, a trial of new, leading-edge technology or creating and sponsoring a project as unique as your business, a partnership in our Commerce for Care Program is an investment that will make a big impact.
Generations of Good
You want to have an impact on the world that your children and grandchildren will inherit.
For the Nagy family, who live – and run their successful family business – on the Saanich Peninsula, SPHHF plays a big role in their philanthropic planning.
They believe that “three basic cornerstones are required to build a robust society: housing, food and healthcare.” Their confidence in the power of local support led them to SPHHF. “Supporting the Foundation achieves the results we seek, to ensure our neighbours and family thrive.” Every generation is impacted by the health care available in the community: legacy giving ensures the next generation benefit from the same high standard of care, as well as capitalising on new innovations.
“We are elated with how successful the Foundation has been in setting and achieving goals that support our local community. We are so proud that our donations go to so many great endeavours, from new diagnostic equipment, to primary care delivery, all of which support our desire to be good neighbours.”
–Steve Nagy

Donor Stories
This sentiment expressed by Commander Peter Chance, Royal Canadian Navy, one of our hospital’s longtime supporters, is one that we know many others share. As a well respected veteran, Cmdr. Chance’s experiences spanned from service in the prewar Volunteer Reserve to 32 years in the Permanent Force, including commanding two warships in the 1950s. Today he continues to serve our community by supporting organizations like the Saanich Peninsula Hospital & Healthcare Foundation, for which we are very grateful. We salute Cmdr. Chance and honour those who have served or serve today in the Canadian Forces.

Legacy Giving
After talking to donors for 20 years, I know that some want to have an immediate impact; others want to leave a longer-lasting imprint.
