About Us

The University of Ottawa Heart Institute Foundation plays a vital role in ensuring that many of the most critical components of world-class cardiac care are available. We raise funds for much needed equipment, facilities, programs, research and education at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute.

The Ottawa Heart Institute's new clinical tower the largest expansion in our more than 40 year history - will open its doors in April 2018. Right now, there is an urgent need to purchase new cardiac equipment for the new facility equipment that will enable the Heart Institute to keep saving lives in our community. With the support of a generous community we are helping an exceptional team of health care professionals advance cardiovascular care and save lives every day.
