Our Purpose

To provide timely financial support to families caring for children in medical crisis, when they need it most.

We work closely with reputable children’s hospitals across Ontario to identify and support limited-income families whose lives have been turned upside down because of the health condition of their child. Jennifer Ashleigh Children's Charity offers financial relief to help with some of the extraordinary costs that come with having a child in hospital, or in active treatment for extended periods of time - expenses that are not covered by hospital funds, OHIP, or private insurance.

We react quickly to requests -and in emergency situations, often in under 24 hours.

We offer critical financial relief so families may focus on the health and well-being of their child and not worry about mounting bills and dwindling finances.

We take an individual approach to financially assisting the children that are referred to us.
We do all our own fundraising. We receive no Government or United Way funding.

We rely solely on the generosity of individuals, corporations, and foundations, as well as funds raised through our signature and community events. Funds are used to assist children in the midst of a significant medical event that requires extended hospitalization or intense hospital care.
