OVERVIEW

About Fondation du CHUM (Fondation du Centre Hospitalier de L'Université de Montréal):

Fondation du CHUM is a 1-star rated charity. It has a slightly below average results reporting grade and is not financially transparent. It has $59m in funding reserves that cover its annual program costs for 5.1 years.

Founded in 1998 through the merger of foundations of Montreal’s Hotel-Dieu, Notre-Dame and Saint-Luc hospitals, Fondation du CHUM raises funds for Centre Hospitalier de L’Université de Montréal (CHUM). The foundation reports that CHUM is an internationally recognized institution for research, teaching and medical treatment for the entire Quebec population. In F2021, the foundation granted $11.6m to the hospital which went to: the new CHUM facility (35%), CHUM’s research centre (40%), equipment, research and training (21%), and research chairs and scholarships (3%).  

In F2021, Fondation du CHUM’s grants allowed the hospital to purchase new pieces of cutting-edge equipment: 4th Generation da Vinci SI Robot, C-Arm, Laser GreenLight XPS 180W, PET Camera, MRI machine, Hemodynamics Device, Endoscopic Ultrasound device and Dual Energy CT Scanner. In the face of the covid-19 pandemic, the hospital was also able to purchase 14 UV-C light robots to disinfect patient rooms and 250 smart devices through the program CHUM connecté to allow patients to stay connected with loved ones during hospital stays. The charity's grants also facilitated six fellowship bursaries and six research projects.

Results and Impact

Fondation du CHUM reports that the UV-C light robots reduce the time it takes to disinfect patient rooms by 30 minutes and reduce the possibility of exposure to covid-19 for thousands of patients and staff. The program CHUM connecté has expanded to provide each unit with one tablet and three cellphones for patients to maintain contact with their loved ones.

Research conducted by Andres Finzi and Renee Bazin demonstrating the key role of IgM in the neutralization of the COVID-19 virus was published. A second study conducted using 3D printing allowed for the creation of a sustainable COVID-19 testing swab.

While Ci highlights these key results, they may not be a complete representation of Fondation du CHUM’s results and impact.
