Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation launches $1 billion campaign with announcement of new hospital location

The Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation is celebrating a historic milestone for kids’ health with the Government of Alberta’s announcement of a land location for a new, stand-alone Stollery Children’s Hospital on the University of Alberta’s South Campus (northeast corner of 122 street and 51 avenue).

“After years of planning and working with the Government of Alberta, this is a historic moment for kids’ health and for every family who has ever walked through the doors of the Stollery,” said Karen Faulkner, President & CEO, Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation. “We are incredibly grateful to the Government of Alberta and the University of Alberta for making this land announcement possible.”

To mark this milestone, the Foundation is proud to launch No Bounds, a once-in-a-generation comprehensive campaign to raise $1 billion to transform children’s health across Alberta, Western Canada and beyond.

“This campaign will help build the new Stollery,” said Faulkner. “But it will also go further, because we believe kids deserve no bounds on their potential. Building a place from the ground up for kids will make care easier to access, allow for more spaces that reduce anxiety and heal hearts, and bring together the best minds in medicine, research and innovation.”

No Bounds is the Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation’s most ambitious endeavour yet. It’s a quest to raise $1 billion to redefine what’s possible in pediatric care when health care, research, and academia come together. By harnessing the energy of the Stollery community to build a world-renowned pediatric institution, the Stollery will be established as a global destination for excellence and offering boundless hope for kids and families.

“A stand-alone Stollery will be an incredible gift to the children of Western Canada. It will mean more kids getting the exceptional care they need in a space that truly feels like it’s for them. A place where they can play, be kids and not be surrounded by adult problems. The idea of more family supports, private rooms and moments where they can simply be kids and forget, even for a minute while they are there – will be incredible,” said Jodi Richardson, Stollery mom to Emmy.
