At The Ottawa Hospital Foundation, you don’t have to wear all the hats.

  • Interacting with people through phone and in-person

  • Working in databases

  • Keeping files and information organized
  • Structured workdays with consistent core responsibilities each day

This role is for you.

“This role is a great fit for organized, detailed people who excel at numbers and databases. A friendly and helpful disposition is also important since my replacement will regularly interact with donors, patients, and other community partners over the phone.” – Sarah Stooke, outgoing Donor Services Associate

We want YOU by our side to help transform the future of healthcare.

OUR MISSION: THE CAMPAIGN TO CREATE TOMORROW

The Ottawa Hospital Foundation has launched the historic $500 million Campaign to Create Tomorrow, a multi-year campaign to support the construction of a new state-of-the-art hospital on Carling Avenue, as well as world-leading medical research. It’s the largest ever fundraising campaign in our region’s history, representing an ambitious vision for the future of healthcare.

“I came from the private sector and was lacking fulfillment. My job was focused on the bottom-line – to make money for a corporation. The Foundation was a welcome change. I connect with the cause, and my work actually matters.”- Natasha De Sousa, Development Officer

The Campaign To Create Tomorrow already has overwhelming community support. Our team of fundraisers have raised $268m (53%) since launching the campaign 3 years ago, which includes some of the largest-ever donations in our city’s history.
