Grants and Awards

Grants from SickKids Foundation

The National Grants Program has two main components:

New Investigator Research Grants
The focus of this program is supporting well-trained researchers across the country who are working to address the most pressing childhood diseases and conditions. 

Community Conference Grants 
This program brings together families, researchers, clinicians, and community organizations, for medical presentations and family-oriented discussions. It helps families access the most up-to-date information about their child's health condition – what they need to win their fight.

In addition to our National Grants, we have introduced a local grants program (Greater Toronto Area):

SickKids WomenPowered
This is an initiative of inspired female philanthropists aiming to enhance their impact by funding SickKids’ work and local charities that contribute to children’s health and well-being. 

Our grants rely on many volunteers who work with us to ensure our funding will  make a difference for Canadian Kids.
