How can I find out if SickKids is fundraising in my neighbourhood?
Each week our map is updated with the towns/cities where canvassers are located. There may be locations not listed on the map due to last minute changes. Please check back tomorrow if you do not see your location on the map.
Can I request that my donation be used for a specific purpose?
You may make a request for the use of the funds. However, Friends’ Board of Directors must retain discretion and control over the use of donated funds. The board of Friends strives to honor a request or a wish made by a donor.

Didn’t the Ontario government already give money for a new SickKids?
In March 2018, the Ontario government under Premier Kathleen Wynne announced up to $2.4 billion for a new SickKids. Three months later, before the pledge could be fulfilled, Wynne’s government lost the provincial election. Premier Doug Ford’s recent funding commitment replaces Wynne’s pledge.
How is it decided if and where I will volunteer?
A decision will be based on your interests, availability, ability to perform the tasks required, available opportunities, and successful completion of our volunteer engagement intake/screening process. Some volunteer roles require more screening, and others less. It depends on what you’re interested in doing. Completing a volunteer application form does not guarantee you a volunteer role.
