Proud supporters
of Canada’s Children’s 
Hospital Foundations for
over 20 years!


In 2020, your support helped raise over $46+ million for Canadian children so they can live their healthiest, most fulfilling lives.

In past years, the CWF has participated in the IWK Telethon for Children Fundraiser and the Janeway Foundation Telethon. We're happy to announce that the IWK Telethon is back and will broadcast on Sunday, June 6 from 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. The Janeway Telethon will be broadcast on Saturday, June 5th, 6:30pm - 9:30pm and Sunday, June 6th, 2:00pm - 7:00pm. (Click HERE for details on the Janeway Telethon).

While we will miss staffing the phones and our live Log-a-Load for Kids Canada cheque presentation, there remains great cause to continue celebrating and donating to your local Children’s Hospital Foundation. 

A heartfelt thank you for your incredible generosity and fund-raising achievements over the last 20 years that has supported children and their families from coast to coast.

A Message of Gratitude from 
Mark Hierlihy, President & CEO, Canada’s Children’s Hospital Foundations

Canada’s children’s hospitals are deeply grateful for your steadfast partnership during this extraordinary year. Even as you managed the exceptional demands of 2020 in your own businesses, you found new ways to come through for kids.

With your support, children’s hospitals were able to adapt and innovate in 2020, responding to the year’s challenges and laying even stronger foundations for the future. Many rapidly adopted virtual platforms to ensure that young patients would have access to the care they needed. Pediatric teams navigated unprecedented operational complexities to continue delivering treatment and care. Hospital leaders reached beyond the walls of their institutions to help protect the health of their communities and of all Canadians.

As hospitals made these extraordinary efforts, our partners were by their side. You sought new ways to support children’s hospital foundations in your communities – engaging your teams and customers, and using fresh approaches to get others involved. Canada’s 13 children’s hospital foundations join me in thanking you for every part of your work with us this year. We’ve always been grateful for your support; this year, it meant more than ever.

Log-a-Load for Kids Canada is a national giving campaign through which loggers and other forest industry individuals donate the value of a load of logs, or any amount raised through fundraising events, to local Children’s Miracle Network (CMN) affiliated hospital foundations. Since its inception in 2000, the program has raised over $1.7 million to help our kids.

Log-A-Load For Kids Canada is a national giving campaign through which loggers and other forest industry people donate the value of a load of logs, or any amount raised through fundraising events, to local Children’s Miracle Network (CMN)-affiliated hospital foundations. One hundred percent of all contributions go to local CMN Canada hospital foundations; overhead expenses are contributed separately by sponsoring associations, the Children’s Miracle Network, and corporate and private underwriting.

Since its inception in September 2000, Log-A-Load for Kids Canada has raised over $1.7 million for various children’s hospitals across Canada. None of that would have been possible without the dedicated work of many, many volunteers who have donated time and effort to organized large and small fund-raising events. All of these efforts put together make for a very successful program.

Children’s hospital foundations affiliated with Children’s Miracle Network are committed to improving the lives of local children. Funds raised by way of Log-A-Load For Kids Canada will be used to purchase life-saving equipment in addition to support breakthrough medical research and other services that do not qualify for Provincial Ministry assistance.

– Barry Waito, Past-Chairman, Canadian Woodlands Forum

What kind of fundraisers will Log A Load
for Kids Canada hold?

Log A Load For Kids Canada has been created to provide any logger with an opportunity to contribute the value of a load of logs to their local Children’s Miracle Network hospital foundation. Log A Load for Kids Canada participants will also organize special fundraising events to supplement donations. Sponsored golf tournaments, cookouts, log and equipment auctions, and raffles are just a few of the creative ideas that can be implemented in your community. And your generosity will receive recognition through local media coverage as well as at the national level.

Are only loggers involved?

Employees of sawmills, pulp and paper mills, and other forest enterprises that depend on loggers often find many ways to lend a hand, by helping sponsor fundraisers, making direct donations, and assisting in promotion and planning.
