Current Campaign: Love Our Lab (2025–2027)

Thanks to the incredible generosity of Yukoners, Love Our Lab has reached its original $500,000 fundraising goal!

Building on that success, the Yukon Hospital Foundation has expanded the campaign to $1 million to further modernize Whitehorse General Hospital’s laboratory. The expanded campaign will support the addition of a new hematology analyzer, alongside the automated track and robotic technology already planned—helping deliver faster, more efficient testing and keeping more care close to home.

Investing in the lab will:

  • Shorten wait times for results
  • Reduce tests sent out of the territory
  • Support recruitment and retention of clinical staff
  • Strengthen care across the hospital—from emergency and cancer care to maternity and primary care

Past Campaigns

Building Better Together (2021–2024)

The Foundation directed fundraising from 2021 to 2024 toward Building Better Together, successfully raising $2 million to create a new 12-bed, in-patient mental wellness unit at Whitehorse General Hospital. The new unit provides safe, comfortable, culturally appropriate spaces where patients can meet with visitors, share meals, and spend time outside their rooms. The Fireweed Mental Wellness Unit opened in 2025.

Extraordinary Together: A Campaign for Our Littlest Yukoners

This campaign supported the creation of a new space in the Maternity Ward where sick infants can receive life-saving care next to their mothers, equipped with the technology to stabilize and support babies while allowing moms to receive care at their side.

Family-centred care close to home for our littlest Yukoners.
