The MacDonald family gift will support advanced cancer care technology, such as personalized radiotherapy, a world’s first cancer-fighting technology being developed at the QEII. The family’s generous support will also be a catalyst for enabling future innovation and discovery opportunities to happen sooner. This will help contribute to delivering care differently, improving access and patient outcomes, reducing wait times, and attracting and retaining the brightest minds in medicine.

“Our family is very proud to be able to make this donation in memory of our parents. Mom and dad were hard-working parents who loved all their seven children unconditionally. Our family is very proud to attach our name to something that will have such a positive impact and will mean so much to so many families in Atlantic Canada.”
