Online Donations:
You can contribute to the Saugeen Memorial Hospital Foundation through the secure site at: www.CanadaHelps.org. An official tax receipt will be sent directly to you by CanadaHelps and an acknowledgement will be sent from the SMHF.
Annual Receipts:
If you are a frequent donor and should you wish to eliminate multiple receipts and minimize administrative costs, you may request an annual receipt which will be issued to you at the end of the taxation year.
Memorial Giving
This is a thoughtful way to help. More often, people are giving to charity in lieu of flowers at the time of the passing of a loved one. Families and individuals indicate their wish to provide memorial gifts to Saugeen Memorial Hospital Foundation to the Funeral Director, and the details will be looked after for you. We will let the family know about each gift and the donor will receive recognition as well as an official tax receipt.

From time to time, the Foundation may sponsor community events or undertake special appeals. Your support of these activities will ensure their success.

Volunteer your time
Nothing is more priceless than how you spend your free time. Give back to your community by donating your time and skills to the Hospital or Foundation. Find out more about volunteering with us.
Planned Giving
Planned giving broadens the options for donors to the Foundation in that the gift may be made out of your assets rather than income.
Here are a few of the choices available:
a. Bequests by Will
b. Gifts of Publicly Listed Securities
c. Gifts to the Ensuring Care Endowment Fund
Should you have an interest, we recommend that you discuss the idea with your personal, legal or financial advisors. We would be pleased to meet with you to provide assistance. For more information on long term gift planning, please see Planned Giving.
