OVERVIEW

About Oakville Hospital Foundation:

Founded in 1991, Oakville Hospital Foundation (OHF) raises funds for Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital (OTMH), part of the Halton Healthcare system. In F2021, OHF reported grants of $7.5m, including $238k in unpaid grant amounts at year end. Its grant funding goes entirely to Halton Healthcare Services Corporation.

In F2021, Oakville Hospital Foundation allocated 52% of grants to medical equipment, 34% to emergency response programs, and 14% to special projects funded by donor advised funds. OHF launched a new covid-19 relief fund in F2021 as part of its emergency programs. In response to the covid-19 pandemic, Oakville Hospital Foundation helped to establish a new field hospital at OTMH. Since opening in December 2020, the 40-bed field hospital has cared for more than 700 patients.

OHF’s website lists a number of other projects funded in F2021. These include mental health programs, maternal and child health, home dialysis, microtomy, and tissue processing. The charity does not report how these programs are allocated between medical equipment and special projects.

Finances

Oakville Hospital Foundation received donations of $8.6m in F2021. Combined administrative and fundraising costs are 41% of revenues (less investment income). For every dollar donated to the charity, 59 cents go to the cause. This is outside of Ci’s reasonable range for overhead spending. OHF was previously within this reasonable range in F2020. However, its donations declined by 22% in F2021, resulting in a higher overhead ratio.

OHF has total funding reserves of $26.1m, of which $14.3m is donor-endowed. Excluding donor-endowed funds, OHF can cover around 2.1 years of annual grant costs.

The charity’s funding reserves contributed $3.6m in investment income in F2021, at an estimated rate of return of 19% (compared to an investment loss of $94k at a return of -0.5% in F2020). Over the last eight years, Ci estimates that OHF’s investment returns have averaged 6%.

According to its most recent CRA filing in F2020, Oakville Hospital Foundation uses external fundraisers. It paid external fundraisers $250k to raise $1.3m in F2020, at a cost of $0.19 per dollar raised.

Charity Intelligence has sent this update to Oakville Hospital Foundation for review. Changes and edits may be forthcoming.
