A Message of Gratitude From CEO Pearl Veenema - June 10, 2020

June 10, 2020

My colleagues and I are extremely grateful for your generous support during the COVID-19 pandemic. Your gifts, which have included financial contributions and donations of personal protective equipment (PPE) and food, have meant so much to the frontline workers who are working tirelessly to support patients. Thank you for your kindness, which has touched many hearts during these stressful times.

Your donor information is safe.

You may have heard or read about the cyberattack on Blackbaud Inc., a third-party service provider used by many charitable organizations. Hamilton Health Sciences Foundation has been assured that our account and donor data was not involved in this cyberattack.

Blackbaud is one of the world’s largest software technology providers to thousands of charities and non-profits including Hamilton Health Sciences Foundation. We use their software to record information about our engagement with our community of donors and friends. And while many charities around the world were impacted by this incident, we were not.
