Anonymous donor gifts $100M to Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation
Reported byCBC Health ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
The Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation received a $100 million anonymous donation, the largest single gift in the foundation's history and the largest ever made to cancer research, education and care in Canada, according to CEO Miyo Yamashita. The gift will fund research, education and care needs and prompted the launch of a $2.5 billion fundraising campaign that had already raised just over $1 billion as of the announcement.
The donor remains anonymous; the foundation has not disclosed their identity or motivation beyond a statement about personal connection to cancer.
