About Nanaimo & District Hospital Foundation
“It’s in Our Nature to Give”— our tag line summarizes what we’re about. The Nanaimo & District Hospital Foundation is on an exciting journey to engage donors of all types who love where we live and share a collective vision of improving the health of our central island region. Founded in 1977, the Nanaimo & District Hospital Foundation raises money for Island Health initiatives and facilitates important conversations that support innovative healthcare for our communities. With a dynamic Board and highly engaged team, the Foundation supports Nanaimo Regional General Hospital, Oceanside Health Centre, Dufferin Place, Trillium Park Lodge, and Eagle Park Healthcare Facility, while operating two businesses, Nanaimo Lifeline and Code Brew Café, whose revenues offset our administration costs.
Strategic Fit
Our 2023‐2026 Strategic Plan calls on us to double our revenues in three years, and we are seeking gifted and driven team players to join us on this exciting and rewarding journey. Technology, donor impact reporting, and database integrity will be key to ensuring the Foundation can meet our obligations, steward and engage our donors, and succeed in our goals. The Foundation’s success will hang on both the quality of our data and quality of our financial information.
