University Hospitals Kingston Foundation (UHKF), Kingston Health Sciences Centre (KHSC) and Providence Care are proud to announce a landmark Double Your Donation Matching Gift Challenge.
Running from November 3 through December 31, 2025, every dollar donated will be matched—up to $100,000—by a group of generous Angel Donors who wish to remain anonymous.
Gifts will be shared between KHSC and Providence Care, to support the most pressing needs across the two organizations.
Through this Matching Gift Challenge, every gift becomes two, ensuring that care close to home remains strong, responsive, and innovative.
“What an incredible opportunity these Angel Donors have created— it’s a call for the community to rally, to multiply their impact, inspiring the entire community to give, and helping ensure our hospitals continue to have what they need to provide compassionate, world-class care right here at home,” said Tom Zsolnay, UHKF President & CEO.
WHY NOW
Local health care is at a pivotal moment. KHSC and Providence Care face evolving demands—from growing patient volumes, patients with more complex needs, to the need for new technologies—all while remaining accountable to the community that they serve. The Matching Gift Challenge allows donors to amplify their support and help Kingston’s hospitals respond faster to emerging priorities.
“KHSC has grown through the vision and generosity of our community, and this partnership has never mattered more. As we prepare for the next generation of care—through new technologies, modern facilities and advanced treatments—this matching challenge helps turn community support into real progress for patients across our region. I’m very grateful to the Angel Donors and all who are investing in the future of care at KHSC,” said Dr. David Pichora, KHSC President and CEO.
“At Providence Care, we see firsthand how community generosity transforms lives. This matching challenge strengthens the very foundation of care: equipment, staff support, innovation—and it does so where it matters most, in our own community,” said Cathy Szabo, Providence Care President & CEO.
THE ANGEL DONORS
The Angel Donors—a group of dedicated community leaders—are united by their belief that healing should always live close to home.
Their generosity reflects a shared conviction that strong hospitals and health-care sites build strong communities, and that when neighbours unite behind a common cause, we can create lasting change.
The Angel Donors’ leadership is more than generosity—it’s a movement. A call to action for everyone who believes that world-class care should thrive right here, close to home.
