From the Desk of the Executive Director: The results are in. Ontario Provincial Staff Crushed the 2025 Federated Health Charities Fundraising Goal
STOP. EVERYTHING.
Because this is not just a campaign update—this is a full-blown, confetti-flying, high-fiving, history-making celebration!
The results are in, and I am beyond thrilled (read: dancing in my office) to announce that Ontario provincial staff have absolutely CRUSHED our 2025 Federated Health Charities fundraising goal by donating $1,754,132!
You didn’t just meet the goal—you obliterated it.
You didn’t just show up—you showed off.
You didn’t just donate—you made a statement.
The Numbers Are BIG. The Impact Is Bigger.
Thanks to your unstoppable energy, generosity, and heart, we raised a record-breaking total that will go 100% directly to our 21-member health charities. That’s right—every single dollar you gave goes straight to the causes that support real people, real families, and real health journeys across Ontario.
No overhead. No admin fees. No deductions.
Just pure, unfiltered impact.
You Made Magic Happen
From bake sales and trivia nights to heartfelt videos and powerful Lunch & Learn events, you turned this campaign into a movement. You rallied your teams, shared your stories, and reminded us all why this work matters.
To every ministry, every agency, every OPP officer and civilian, every office, every donor, every cheerleader:
YOU are the reason this campaign shattered expectations.
YOU are the heartbeat of Federated Health Charities.
Where Does the Money Go?
Let’s talk transparency—because we’re proud of how we do things:
1. Allocated Donations
You chose your cause. We delivered.
100% of allocated donations go directly to the charity or charities you selected.
These donor-directed gifts make up a huge portion of each charity’s support.
2. Non-Allocated Donations
You gave to all 21 charities—and we made sure it was fair.
60% is split evenly among all charities
40% is divided based on last year’s allocated donation percentages
Example: If a charity received 9% of allocated donations last year, it gets 9% of the 40% portion this year.
It’s smart. It’s equitable. It’s designed by the charities themselves.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
You are the reason we do this. And you are the reason we’ll keep doing it—bigger, bolder, and better every year.
With endless gratitude and excitement,
