OMF and Canadian Red Cross humanitarian relief campaign
Help us support Canadian Red Cross initiatives that address global health inequity
In 2022, humanitarian crises will impact an estimated 247 million people worldwide. The Ontario Medical Foundation (OMF) recognizes that many of these crises affect the communities of our members, and we are committed to addressing health inequity. With the number of people impacted growing, the OMF and the Ontario Medical Association (OMA) invite you to donate through the Canadian Red Cross to provide life-changing support for those in need.
The Canadian Red Cross is active in several regions of the world with ongoing incidents of humanitarian crisis including Ukraine, Yemen, Afghanistan, Palestine and other international aid appeals. The Canadian Red Cross responds to the needs of these vulnerable communities, providing primary health-care programs, relief supplies and shelter solutions.
Help support the Canadian Red Cross initiatives that address global health inequity. Your support enables the Canadian Red Cross to fund efforts to improve the precarious health conditions of many impacted by conflicts and/or natural disasters.
