Welcome to the Kindness Project! Students across our region are joining together to promote kindness and encourage community citizenship - all in support of McMaster Children’s Hospital Foundation.
With nearly 250,000 patient visits each year, McMaster Children’s Hospital is one of Canada’s leading pediatric health care facilities. Funds raised through the Kindness Project support the highest-priority needs of McMaster Children’s Hospital, including Ron Joyce Children’s Health Centre. The Foundation provides funding for vital equipment and patient amenities, innovative research initiatives, redevelopment of patient care spaces and the education and training of health care providers.
