Established on October 3rd, 1990 -- the
sixth anniversary of Sian's birth -- to help children
with cancer at the Montreal Children's Hospital (MCH).
-
100% volunteer-based. All
activities are conducted by volunteers; we have no
salaried staff.
-
Volunteers in Toronto started raising
funds for the Hospital For Sick Children (HSC) in 1991.
-
Administered by the Foundations of the
Montreal Children's Hospital and Hospital For Sick
Children, who also issue tax receipts.
-
The intent of the Fund is to purchase
medical equipment and other items deemed necessary for
the better diagnosis and treatment of children with
cancer.
-
Acquisition of the equipment is made by
the Purchasing Department of each Hospital.
-
Occasionally, the Fund may purchase items
other than medical equipment for compassionate reasons.
Items purchased in the past includes wigs, special
mattresses to ease the pain of children in the terminal
stages.
-
The Fund used to cover the cost of
printing a handbook for parents of children with cancer
(text now available on our web site).
-
100% of all monetary donations go to
the purchase of medical equipment.
-
Approximately $900,000 has been donated to
the Hospitals.
-
Accounts are audited
every year, provided we can find volunteer auditors
-
The Fund was incorporated in 2000
