As part of their ongoing commitment to ensuring Headwaters Health Care Centre (HHCC) continues to provide the highest quality of care to residents of the Dufferin-Caledon community and beyond, Headwaters Health Care Auxiliary (HHCA) has pledged $1,000,000 over the next 4 years to Smart Headwaters. HHCA are long time supporters of Headwaters Health Care Foundation (HHCF) and have contributed since 1986. This most recent pledge to Smart Headwaters brings their cumulative giving to over $5.9 Million!

The Auxiliary continues to play a critical role in HHCC. Their team of 300 dedicated, philanthropic volunteers contribute thousands of hours at our hospital. From escorting patients, comforting loved ones, assisting staff and raising funds, their efforts have a lasting impact.

Mike Carter, President of HHCA explained, “We are incredibly appreciative of the community support our many fundraising efforts have received. Through donations to, and purchases from Seconds Count, to visiting the Pulse Cafe and Gift Shop at the Hospital, it is truly the Dufferin-Caledon community that has made it possible for us to support Smart Headwaters in this capacity!”

K.C. Carruthers, Headwaters Health Care Foundation CEO added, “The Auxiliary has always stepped up to support our hospital. Through their significant financial contributions, and the many volunteer hours they provide to the hospital each year. The team of volunteers that make up the Auxiliary are an invaluable addition to Headwaters Health Care and the overall patient experience at our hospital. We cannot thank them enough for this major gift to Smart Headwaters.”
