Our Vision – To Conquer Cancer In Our Lifetime
Working together with health care and research professionals, patients, and the community, The Princess Margaret Hospital Foundation raises over $60 million annually to support breakthrough research and patient care and education programs of Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH) – Canada’s leading cancer research hospital. PMH is a recognized international leader in the fight against cancer. But none of this would be possible without the generous support, commitment and dedication of our donors and our community.

Princess Margaret Hospital, along with Toronto General Hospital and Toronto Western Hospital comprise University Health Network (UHN). UHN is among the ranks of the world's leading providers of exemplary patient care and innovative research and teaching.

Our three main lines of business at The Princess Margaret Hospital Foundation are: Fund raising, investment management and stewardship.
