Your Gift Helps Save Lives—Today and in the Future

Your donation will help
solve a significant problem

Canada is facing a shortage of cardiac surgeons—and a healthcare system under strain. At the same time, there are brilliant, compassionate young people ready to answer the call, but held back by barriers beyond their control. When you give to Operation Heart, you’re investing in future heart surgeons from underserved communities, building a healthcare workforce that reflects and understands the people it serves, and improving patient outcomes across Ontario. Donate today to help us open doors, create leaders, and save lives—one future surgeon at a time.
