Donor Spotlight | Week of July 30
The Dilawri Foundation
The Dilawri Group of Companies and The Dilawri Foundation are wonderfully generous supporters of SickKids. Through their $5 million gift to help fund the building of our world-leading Research Centre and a $2 million gift that created the Dilawri Patient Amenities Fund, Dilawri has made a considerable investment in bettering the lives of our patients today – and the lives of children tomorrow.
The Dilawri Group of Companies, the premier automotive group in Canada, has 68 franchised dealerships across the country and employs more than 3,500 people. They formed The Dilawri Foundation to make a positive difference in the areas of health care, medical research and family services - their gifts to SickKids are a perfect example.
We are exceedingly proud to be associated with a group that has made supporting communities across Canada such a priority. Our heartfelt thanks to the Dilawri Family, The Dilawri Group of Companies and The Dilawri Foundation!
Mackie Harley-Davidson has a strong history of supporting SickKids. For 9 years, they were a sponsor for the Ride for SickKids event and, in 2018, organized their own event called Shifting Gears for SickKids in support of the Garron Family Cancer Centre. The inaugural event was a huge success with more than 100 participants that attended and over $33,000 raised. SickKids is delighted to honour Mackie Harley-Davidson as our Donor of the Week. From the bottom of even our tiniest hearts, thank you to the Mackie Family, their generous volunteers and all of the participants for standing by SickKids in our fight against the greatest challenges in child health!
