Giving back in major ways
After experiencing firsthand the vital role of Oak Valley Health’s Markham Stouffville Hospital (MSH) in her family’s health journey, Theresa has devoted her time, energy, and philanthropy to ensure the hospital continues to provide exceptional care for future generations.


Legacy donations: Investing in the future
Over the years, Theresa has seen the hospital expand to meet the growing needs of the community it serves. “For many years, both my parents and I have made monetary donations to the hospital,” says Theresa. “After my Dad passed away, I chose to include a bequest to the MSH Foundation in my Will.”
Donations are critical to MSH, and enable the hospital to continue providing quality care, while keeping up with life-saving technology — today, and for generations to come. Because government funding can’t cover all of MSH’s priority needs, donors like Theresa make a significant difference in shaping the future landscape of health care. Bequests of every size are imperative to our hospital’s future, making sure that the staff at MSH can continue to deliver the exceptional care that our community needs.
“By providing a legacy donation, it is my hope that the hospital continues to provide quality care and is able to partake in advances made in health care in the future,” says Theresa.
May is Leave a Legacy month in Canada, a time to highlight the impact of providing a charitable contribution that ensures a lifetime of care for our growing, aging, and diverse community. Naming the MSH Foundation in your Will is a powerful act of giving.
