SickKids Foundation would like to thank Atrens-Counsel Insurance Brokers Ltd. for its long-standing dedication and support to the health and well-being of children. Atrens-Counsel Insurance Brokers Ltd. has been an exceptional supporter of the Foundation particularly through its annual “Straight from our Hearts” golf tournament that raises proceeds for cardiac research. On July 8, Atrens-Counsel held their 14th annual tournament, which has raised more than $1 million to date. Congratulations on your fundraising success. We truly appreciate the commitment Atrens-Counsel has made to SickKids.


Starlight Starbright Children’s Foundation

Each year Starlight Starbright Children’s Foundation provides support to The Hospital for Sick Children to fund many initiatives. This includes the Starlight Room and emergency room packages for newly admitted patients and their families, as well as generously donated toys and arts and crafts. Last year alone, Starlight provided 25 Fun Centres, which are mobile entertainment units that have a DVD player and the latest Nintendo game system, to help to bring fun and distraction to the patients at the hospital. Thank you to Starlight Starbright Children’s Foundation for over a decade of generosity.
