A Pandemic Year

Take a moment to think back to the beginning of March 2020, when the unimaginable awaited us. As COVID-19 was declared a pandemic, our offices closed, the streets grew quiet, rainbows adorned windows, and uncertainty settled in. But dedication, resilience, and courage flowed through the walls of the MUHC.

The MUHC Foundation is proud to support each and every one of the MUHC's health care heroes, who showed and continue to show such dedication to our community. And we’re equally grateful to our supporters at every level, who came together with the launch of our COVID-19 Emergency Fund and helped our Foundation raise over $7 million to respond to this global health crisis.

From corporate and community leadership, to excellence in research and everything in between, we overcame every challenge together. Thank you.

COVID-19 Stories

“With the support of corporations from our community and beyond, the MUHC received funding for its most pressing needs, PPE during a critical shortage, and tokens of appreciation for frontline workers in the form of meals, snacks and clothing. Every one of these gifts supported our hospital heroes as they fought on the frontlines to keep us safe, and the support of our community comforted them through the most difficult times.”
