As stated on their website “The sole purpose of the CHEO Foundation is to raise funds to help support the work of the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. Donations help the hospital provide a wide variety of pediatric programs, research, state-of the art equipment, medical and nursing education, and assistance for families in crisis.”

Each year the Annual Report highlights the Foundation’s success in fundraising by highlighting the children CHEO is helping and sharing major improvements the hospital has made with donor funds.
