Funding Guidelines
Newfound Foundation is strictly a "Children's Charity" and our mandate is to provide assistance to children and families who are facing financial hardship, due to illness of a child.
We strive to help lessen the financial burden placed on families when they need it the most.
Recipients of the funds are identified through the Outreach and Social Work Division of the Janeway Hospital
where Provincial Social Workers, work directly with the families in need. In turn, the request is sent to our Foundation where approval of funds are handled. The need for funding, including the names of children, parents or guardians
is strictly confidential and held in the upmost trust.
