FAQs

How can I give to MCHF?

There are all sorts of ways to donate to MCHF: cash contributions, property, remembrances in wills, structured gift planning, toys and even clean gently used clothing and unwrapped toiletry kits are all welcome. Gifts of time are also a way for individuals to give to MCHF and the Hospital. Volunteer time is precious and the Foundation is working hard to educate the younger generation about the concept of giving. Remember too that you can direct your financial contributions to specific areas of the Hospital - these donations are referred to as "restricted donations". You may also choose to make an "unrestricted donation" which will enable the Foundation to designate where your contribution will go in order to support the Hospital’s needs.
