Jennifer Ashleigh Children's Charity

To provide timely financial support to families caring for children in medical crisis, when they need it most.

For over 35 years, Jennifer Ashleigh Children’s Charity has provided urgent financial relief to families caring for children facing a life-altering illness or traumatic injury that requires extensive medical intervention. For families with modest incomes and no cash reserves, managing the unexpected and often overwhelming costs of a lengthy hospital stay can be crippling. From medical expenses not covered by OHIP, to the cost of travel and accommodation near distant hospitals, meals on the road, sibling childcare, and essential household support — these hidden expenses quickly add up. Our charity helps bridge the gap, giving parents the breathing room they need to focus on what truly matters most, their child.
