We’re looking for leaders!
Are you a dedicated professional with experience in the not-for-profit, healthcare or charitable fundraising sectors? Do you have a passion for service to your community and the people of Ontario?
Then Federated Health Charities invites you to consider applying for a position on our Board of Directors.
Federated Health Charities is a not-for-profit corporation that raises funds through an annual workplace giving campaign for 21 health charities delivering vital medical research, health education and awareness, and essential client and patient services to people in communities across Ontario.
Federated Health Charities was founded in 1983 by members of the Ontario Public Service to enable them to raise funds in the workplace similar to the United Way’s annual campaigns. Rooted in the tradition of service to our communities, our annual campaign is held in more than 40 workplaces throughout the Ontario Public Service, the Ontario Provincial Police, and participating provincial agencies. Led by dedicated volunteers who donate their time, skills, and creativity on top of their daily responsibilities as public servants, the Federated Health Charities campaign is one of Canada’s longest and most successful workplace giving campaigns, raising more than $55 million for healthier communities across Ontario.

Interested applicants should have experience in the not-for-profit, fundraising, and/or healthcare sectors. Preference will be given to applicants with prior experience working with health charities at a senior level, and/or previous experience at the board level of a not-for-profit or charity.
