Why Give

Why Give

Your support strengthens Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital, ensuring best-in-class care for our growing community.

The challenge we face

In 2015, the Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital (OTMH) opened as a state-of-the-art facility, designed to deliver the best care from top medical professionals in the heart of our community.

However, as the combined population of Halton Region and West Mississauga now exceeds 740,000, our healthcare system faces increasing demand.

This growth, coupled with rising operational costs and changes in funding, has created a gap that we must address to maintain our high standards of care.

This challenge is particularly significant because OTMH is not just a community hospital, it’s a regional leader in several specialized programs, including inpatient children’s mental health, nephrology, diabetes education, and cardiac rehabilitation.

Our hospital also provides essential services such as pathology and microbiology testing for Milton District Hospital and Georgetown Hospital.

Meeting the needs of a growing population while maintaining these specialized and critical services requires significant investment in our facilities, technology, and staff.
