The Stollery is the most specialized children’s hospital in Western Canada. It’s the second largest children’s hospital in Canada by both bed-count and patient visits — but it’s the only children’s hospital woven through an existing adult hospital. Together, we're going to change that.

For 25 years, families have been relying on the Stollery's world-class care – from broken bones to the most complex cases, the Stollery provides the most specialized care in Western Canada.

For 25 years, our community has come together around a shared belief that all kids deserve the best chance to live a long and healthy life. That belief has shaped the Stollery we know today.

At the Stollery, world-class medical care is only part of the journey. Donor supported programs are what cares for the whole family and lets kids be kids even during a hospital stay.

On this month’s Spotlight on the Stollery, Jennifer Millsap, Team Lead for the Stollery Awasisak Indigenous Health Program, and Grant Bruno, Indigenous health researcher at the Women and Children's Health Research Institute, joined our friends at Global to talk about how donor support is advancing health equity at the Stollery and beyond.

We’re thrilled to announce another ten-year partnership with the Women and Children’s Health Research Institute (WCHRI), along with partners at the University of Alberta, Alberta Women’s Hospital Foundation and Alberta Health Services.

Your generosity helped fund critical technology that will be used in the David Schiff and Philip C. Etches Stollery neonatal intensive care units (NICUs).

The Stollery Children’s Hospital is home to one of the most advanced life-support programs for critically ill children in Canada and has recently received the highest level of international recognition for its work.
