Why does SickKids still need donations? / Why is SickKids still asking for donations?
For any new health-care build, provincial funding formulas require that the hospital contribute at least 25% of the total project costs. For SickKids, that works out to $600 million, regardless of how much the government contributes. To reach this goal, we must rely on the generous support of donors.
