Community event
A Run for Chris
Join us on Sunday, August 18, 2024. Now in its third year, A Run for Chris is hosted in memory of Chris Owens, who touched the lives and hearts of so many in his community. To continue the memorial run’s proud tradition of raising funds for programs and services helping those living with mental health and/or substance use concerns, net proceeds of this year’s event will support St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton’s Youth Wellness Centre located in the downtown core.
community event
Sunday Morning Fever
This sold-out Sunday Brunch, happening September 29, 2024, hosted by Saverina Scozzari will feature music from Z103’s DJ Danny D and Tony Monaco, a silent auction, and more to help raise funds for mental health supports for kidney transplant recipients. Saverina received her own life-saving kidney transplant at St. Joe’s in January 2023 and is planning this event to give back to the Hospital that has cared for her during her journey with kidney disease.
community event
Guitar Strings & Kidney Things
A concert for a cause. A gig that gives back. Call it whatever you like, we’re “amped up” that Guitar Strings and Kidney Things is returning this Friday, October 25, 2024 with Lowest Of The Low and Ace of Wands taking the stage at Bridgeworks Hamilton. Join us for a night of great music for an even greater purpose, as net proceeds from the event will support kidney care at St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton.

Purse Bingo
Maria Dorego and our Foundation Team are already hard at work planning the early 2025 return of the Gal-entine’s fundraiser that brings bingo dabbers and designer handbags together, all in support of the Mental Health and Addictions program at our Hospital.
