The PRHC Foundation’s Celebration of Giving Donor Wall has undergone its annual update and reflects information received from donors to the end of September 2025.
This beautiful display located on the main floor of the hospital outside the cafeteria recognizes cumulative giving of $5,000 or more. It celebrates the compassion and commitment of our community and stands as a proud tribute to the power of philanthropy.
Thank you to the donors being recognized for the first time, those whose giving has reached a new level, and supporters who have included Peterborough Regional Health Centre Foundation in their estate plans.
Your dedication helps ensure the best care is available to patients and their families at your regional hospital. Together, we’re reimagining healthcare, inspiring hope, and celebrating the extraordinary generosity that shapes PRHC every day.
