You can make a difference in the lives of Island kids.

For the past century, Children’s Health Foundation of Vancouver Island has been there to support the health care journeys of Island families.

We do that by reducing barriers to accessing health care – both in terms of cost and distance.

Our Homes Away From Home, Jeneece Place in Victoria and Q̓ walayu House in Campbell River, are welcoming, comfortable, affordable places for families to stay next to the hospital while their child receives care.

Our Bear Essentials program provides direct support to families to cover costs of their child’s health care needs, from specialized equipment to health-related travel.
