“You need to come to the hospital now – it’s back”
Six years later, Leah can still recall every detail about the moment when she listened to that flashing voicemail message from her husband and learned that her three-year-old daughter’s cancer had returned.
Leah may never forget that lifechanging day, but what she remembers even more clearly is how donors helped save her child’s life.
Over the course of her cancer treatment, Leah’s daughter Fiona received more than 100 transfusions of blood and platelets, as well as a lifesaving stem cell transplant. Generous donors like you ensured those life essentials were there, every time she needed them.
Today, your financial gift will help more patients like Fiona.
With your help
For patients like Charles, the need for blood products is constant – even during a global pandemic.
Charles has received more than 100 blood transfusions to help treat his genetic condition and throughout his life, he will require hundreds more. During these uncertain times, we are committed to keep our promise to help every patient, match every need and serve every Canadian like Charles.
Your gift today can help support our ongoing response efforts in the face of new and urgent challenges, like those we are experiencing with COVID-19. Together, we will continue to ensure that important life essentials are always there for those in need.
It's easy to give
There are so many ways to make a financial gift. No matter how you choose to give, every dollar will make a difference in our efforts to improve outcomes for Canadian patients.
Donate a few dollars each month as part of our monthly giving program, or make a one-time gift to celebrate a special occasion or honour a loved one. You can even explore our planned giving options, or inspire and engage your staff through corporate giving.
