This defining moment brought together long-established philanthropic forces to support a brand-new, world-class teaching hospital that\u2019s both innovative and forward-thinking.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2023, the Foundation launched publicly its most ambitious major campaign yet, to raise $200 million by 2028. The goal of this campaign is to equip the CHUM with even more powerful tools to act faster than disease.\u00a0Today, the CHUM Foundation is driven by the same deep conviction as before: that each act of generosity brings us closer to a healthier future for all. And its story continues to be written\u2014all thanks to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/en\/news\/\">Foundation news<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/CHUM-3-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1703 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/CHUM-3-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/CHUM-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/CHUM-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/CHUM-3-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/CHUM-3-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":423,"menu_order":13,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-426","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/426","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=426"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/426\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6544,"href":"https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/426\/revisions\/6544"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/423"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fondationduchum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=426"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
