These greatest needs may occur in departments throughout St. Paul’s and include urgently needed equipment or assistance to patient care, research or teaching initiatives for which it may be more challenging to secure funding.

Here are some areas that greatest needs donations have funded in the past year.

• Patient care, including 45 projects through our Enhanced Patient Care fund in areas such as respirology, orthopaedics, cystic fibrosis, otolaryngology (Ears, Nose and Throat), mental health and renal (kidney).
• Research in areas such as the Centre for Heart Lung Innovation at St. Paul’s, hematology, obstetrics & gynecology, and surgery.
• Urgently needed equipment and other items in our GI Clinic, Emergency Department and Maternity Centre.

Every year, we invite the community to support greatest needs at St. Paul’s through the Lights of Hope campaign. Be a part of it. Make a donation to support patient care, research and teaching at St. Paul’s.
