Helping Hearts Helping Hearts Helping Hearts

Our Helping Hearts campaign encourages individuals and groups to donate funds for a specific piece of urgently needed medical equipment. It’s an easy way for like-minded people to give with heart to the University of Ottawa Heart Institute Foundation.

Through Helping Hearts, your gift will have a big impact by ensuring that vital equipment is always available for life-saving care at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute. This year, we need your support to purchase equipment for our new hybrid operating room.
