Capital Campaign: Honour The Past. Protect The Future.

The Juno Beach Centre has a bold vision to preserve, develop and inspire as a Canadian landmark, to become a model institution in sustainability, and to help preserve and steward land in the area. The whole world is watching as donors on both sides of the Atlantic join hands once again to create a once-in-a-generation legacy and experience to keep the story alive for future generations.

Governments and donors in France and Canada, whose unending gratitude and friendship continues, have agreed to contribute almost $6 million of the $12.5 million needed to realize this once-in-a-generation vision and opportunity. These friendships forged in fire are an important part of Canada’s cultural legacy and diplomatic relations abroad.

Juno Beach Centre Association is asking individual Canadians, corporations, businesses, organizations, and charitable foundations to join the effort with the remaining $6.5 million needed to realize this vision, pass the torch to future generations, and celebrate the bravery, ingenuity, and sacrifice of young Veterans whose courage and commitment shapes the freedoms and the Canada we enjoy today.

The campaign will carry the Juno Beach Centre forward through 2029, ensuring lasting impact for generations to come. Key campaign priorities include:

Canadian D-Day monument – To honour all Canadians who served and were sacrificed during the Second World War, and will stand for generations, honouring their sacrifice.

• It will be the first permanent memorial on Juno Beach to individually name all 381 Canadian soldiers and aircrew who lost their lives on June 6, 1944.

• Construction will be underway shortly, with completion expected in 2028 ahead of the 85th anniversary of D-Day, and the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Juno Beach Centre

• Remembrance Beyond the Beach: we are creating a powerful digital monument experience to bring the stories of the 381 Canadians who fell on D-Day into classrooms, homes, and communities across the country. Through an interactive online platform, visitors will be able to explore a virtual version of the monument, search individual names, and uncover the lives behind each inscription.

Visitor Experience Enhancement – JBC Expansion to create an eco-friendly Boutique & Café, increasing the footprint of the museum by 25%.

• In addition to improving the visitor experience, this expansion will help to increase the revenue generation capacity in support of the museum.

Stewardship of Heritage Lands – To protect our commemorative site from urbanization, and aligned with the Centre’s sustainable development strategy, including:

• Project Concordia is a commemorative landscaping restoration project that will protect precious ecosystems and biodiversity, and enhance the memorial park surrounding the Centre as a space for reflection and learning.

Educational Programs – With global threats to democracy rising, the Juno Beach Centre feels a deep-seated responsibility to ensure future generations of Canadians understand and appreciate the critical role our country once played in defending the values of democracy and freedom. We must inspire future generations so that they might continue to defend those ideals as new forms of dictatorship and oppression take hold in many parts of the world. To do that, the Centre is investing in our capacity to tell our story in Canada, creating the most connected ecosystem for Second World War education, remembrance, and active citizenship in Canada.

• New Digital & Social Exhibitions will greatly expand our capacity to share Canada’s history with Canadians, diving deep into key moments and building a greater appreciation and understanding of the contributions our country made to the war effort.

• Summer Institutes & Pilgrimages to the Juno Beach Centre in Normandy, France, will gift unique, once in a lifetime, visceral experiences for young, diverse Canadians as well as groups of teachers and students, from schools, scouting, youth groups and beyond, for curated and unforgettable learning experiences and pilgrimages.

• New online modules and curriculum resources will provide Canadian teachers the opportunity to immerse their students in the history of the Second World War, and the values that still need to be defended today, in a more interactive way.

• Flagship Educational Initiatives will bring new immersive educational experiences and resources to communities across Canada and serve as a centre point for a new kind of civic engagement rooted in our country’s historical commitment to peace, freedom and democracy.

À propos de l’Association Centre Juno Beach (Canada)

L’Association du Centre Juno Beach (ACJB) est une association canadienne à but non lucratif dirigée par un conseil d’administration situé en Ontario (Canada). L’ACJB est propriétaire du Centre Juno Beach, en Normandie (France).

Notre mission : Faire rayonner la mémoire de la Seconde Guerre mondiale du Canada par le souvenir, l’éducation et un engagement mondial envers la paix et la démocratie.

Notre vision : Un Canada où l’héritage de la Seconde Guerre mondiale inspire, d’une génération à l’autre, une citoyenneté éclairée, une démocratie résiliente et une mémoire nationale vivante.

Nos valeurs : Responsabilisation, collaboration, diversité et inclusion, éthique, innovation, intégrité, transparence et respect

Raison d’être de l’AJBC

• Offrir un lieu de mémoire tangible et approprié à la participation du Canada à la Seconde Guerre mondiale et faire reconnaître l’émergence du pays sur la scène internationale

• Se souvenir et commémorer les sacrifices consentis par l’ensemble de la population canadienne ayant contribué à la victoire des Alliés, sur tous les fronts et au pays

• Faire connaître aux adultes et aux enfants d’aujourd’hui ainsi qu’aux générations futures le rôle du Canada dans la préservation des libertés dont nous bénéficions aujourd’hui.

Au quotidien, le personnel et l’équipe de l’Association du Centre Juno Beach au Canada doivent :

• recueillir des fonds pour le Centre Juno Beach en France et pour les programmes, les activités et le personnel de l’ACJB au Canada;

• collaborer étroitement avec le personnel du Centre à la conception d’expositions et de programmes en France;

• concevoir et offrir tous les programmes et projets de l’ACJB au Canada;

• accroître la notoriété de l’ACJB et du Centre ainsi que l’engagement à leur égard en organisant des activités de rayonnement, de mobilisation communautaire et de défense des intérêts;

• appuyer le conseil d’administration de l’ACJB.

En ce moment, l’équipe compte quatre membres et génère des revenus annuels d’environ 1,5 million de dollars canadiens.

Campagne de financement : Respecter la mémoire. Protéger le futur.

Le Centre Juno Beach nourrit une vision ambitieuse : préserver et mettre en valeur ce lieu emblématique canadien, en faire une source d’inspiration, devenir un établissement modèle en matière de durabilité et contribuer à la protection et à la gestion des terres environnantes. Sous les yeux du monde entier, des donateurs des deux côtés de l’Atlantique unissent de nouveau leurs efforts afin d’offrir un legs et une expérience jamais vus dans une même génération, et de garder cette histoire vivante pour les générations futures.

Les gouvernements et les donateurs de la France et du Canada, unis par une gratitude et une amitié indéfectibles, ont accepté de verser près de 6 des 12,5 millions de dollars nécessaires à la réalisation de cette vision remarquable. Ces liens d’amitié forgés sous les canons constituent une part importante du patrimoine culturel du Canada et de ses relations diplomatiques à l’étranger.

L’Association Centre Juno Beach invite la population canadienne, les entreprises, les organismes et les fondations de bienfaisance à se joindre à l’effort de collecte de fonds. Il reste en effet à trouver 6,5 millions de dollars. Cette somme permettra de concrétiser cette vision, de passer le flambeau aux générations futures et de rendre hommage au courage, à l’ingéniosité et aux sacrifices des vétérans et vétéranes dont l’engagement a façonné les libertés et le Canada dont nous jouissons aujourd’hui.

La campagne soutiendra l’essor du Centre Juno Beach jusqu’en 2029 et laissera une empreinte durable pour les générations à venir. Ses grandes priorités sont les suivantes :

Monument canadien du Jour J — Ce monument rendra hommage à tous les Canadiens et toutes les Canadiennes qui ont servi ou qui ont sacrifié leur vie pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il témoignera de leur sacrifice pendant des générations.

• Il s’agira du premier monument permanent de Juno Beach à nommer individuellement les 381 militaires (armées de terre et de l’air) qui ont perdu la vie le 6 juin 1944.

• La construction commencera sous peu et devrait se terminer en 2028, avant le 85e anniversaire du Jour J et le 25e anniversaire de la fondation du Centre Juno Beach.

• Un souvenir qui dépasse les limites de la plage proposera une expérience numérique saisissante autour du monument afin de faire entrer dans les salles de classe, les foyers et les collectivités de partout au pays l’histoire des 381 nôtres tombés au combat le Jour J. Une plateforme interactive en ligne permettra au public d’explorer une version virtuelle du monument, de rechercher des noms et de découvrir la vie derrière chaque inscription.

Amélioration de l’expérience de visite — Agrandissement du CJB pour aménager une boutique et un café écoresponsables, ce qui augmentera de 25 % la superficie du musée.

• En plus de rendre la visite plus agréable, cet agrandissement permettra au musée d’augmenter ses revenus.

Gestion des terres patrimoniales — Protection du lieu commémoratif contre l’urbanisation, conformément à la stratégie de développement durable du Centre, notamment par les moyens suivants :

• Le projet Concordia, projet de restauration paysagère commémorative, préservera des écosystèmes précieux et la diversité biologique, tout en embellissant le parc commémoratif qui entoure le Centre en en faisant un lieu de réflexion et d’apprentissage.

Initiatives éducatives — Devant la montée des menaces qui pèsent sur la démocratie dans le monde, le Centre Juno Beach se sent profondément responsable de veiller à ce que les générations futures comprennent et apprécient le rôle crucial que notre pays a joué dans la défense des valeurs démocratiques et de la liberté. Il nous faut inspirer les générations futures afin qu’elles continuent de défendre ces idéaux alors que de nouvelles formes de dictature et d’oppression s’installent dans de nombreuses régions du monde. Pour y parvenir, le Centre investit dans sa capacité à raconter notre histoire au Canada et crée le réseau le plus étroitement interrelié au pays pour l’enseignement de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, la commémoration et la citoyenneté active.

• De nouvelles expositions numériques et sociales accroîtront considérablement notre capacité à faire connaître l’histoire du Canada à la population canadienne. Elles permettront d’explorer en profondeur des moments clés et de mieux faire comprendre et apprécier la contribution du pays à l’effort de guerre.

Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre (MTC) is seeking an ambitious, strategic and deeply relationship-driven leader to serve as its Senior Director of Advancement at a pivotal moment in the organization’s evolution. This is a senior organizational leadership role and the successful candidate will be one of the key leaders shaping MTC’s future. Reporting to the Executive Director, the Senior Director of Advancement is someone who can lead and build a team, cultivate and steward relationships and have the confidence required to move the organization from aspiration to action. This is not simply a role about raising money. It is about helping more people see themselves as part of the future of the theatre, understand why MTC matters now and choose to invest in what it can become.

This leadership role sits at the heart of that next chapter for MTC. A major campaign is on the horizon and the organization needs someone with the experience, energy and judgement to help prepare for it. This is a role for someone who understands that philanthropy begins with relationships that are built over time, through trust, curiosity, generosity and shared experience.

About Royal MTC

As Canada’s oldest English-language regional theatre and Manitoba’s flagship theatre organization, MTC is entering a period of renewed momentum and long-term ambition. Founded in 1958, it was built on a powerful idea: that great theatre should belong to the people, not just the elites. Today, MTC produces theatre on two stages and tours work across the region. It supports artists and students, produces the Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival, develops new work, invests in Indigenous and Canadian storytelling, and welcomes audiences from across the province.

MTC exists to hold an open door to all Manitobans, to share stories that connect us to each other and to our world. We envision MTC as Canada’s preeminent regional theatre, delivering unrivalled excellence, and inspiring Manitobans through the transformative power of storytelling.

MTC is working to become more open, more connected, more accessible and more deeply woven into the life of Manitoba. The Senior Director of Advancement will be instrumental in helping shape the next chapter by strengthening relationships with people and organizations who care about the future of theatre, culture, community and civic life.

Why join MTC?

Royal MTC is entering one of the most exciting chapters in its history, making this a rare opportunity to help shape the future of one of Canada's leading cultural institutions.

While leading a strong advancement program is fundamental to the role, the opportunity is much broader. You will help build the relationships, leadership capacity, volunteer engagement, and campaign readiness that will support MTC's next era of growth and community impact.

You will work alongside ambitious artistic and executive leadership, an engaged Board of Trustees, a passionate staff team, a vibrant artistic community and audiences who care deeply about the future of the theatre. Together, you will help ensure MTC remains artistically excellent, welcoming, relevant, and sustainable for generations of Manitobans.

President & Chief Executive Officer

The Opportunity

William Osler Health System Foundation (Osler Foundation) is seeking its next President & CEO to build on significant campaign momentum; lead the organization through the successful completion of its current campaign; and shape the Foundation’s next chapter. This opportunity comes at a pivotal time as William Osler Health System (Osler) continues to expand capacity, transform Peel Memorial into Brampton’s second hospital, advance comprehensive cancer care, and respond to the needs of one of Ontario’s fastest-growing and most diverse communities.

Reporting to the Board of Directors, the President & CEO is accountable for the overall leadership, strategy, management and performance of the Foundation, ensuring that the Foundation’s strategic priorities are translated into clear plans, accountabilities and results.

The President & CEO will serve as the Foundation’s principal executive liaison and strategic partner to William Osler Health System and as an ex-officio member of the Osler Executive team. Working closely with Health System leadership, the President & CEO will help translate Osler’s strategic and capital priorities into a compelling philanthropic agenda and aligned funding priorities.

As the Foundation leader, the President & CEO will serve as a coach and champion, setting clear expectations and creating the conditions for the Foundation Leadership Team and their teams to succeed. The successful candidate will build organizational capability, empower leaders to lead, hold the team accountable for results, develop future leadership capacity, and model the Foundation’s values in day-to-day work and interactions. Success will depend not only on the CEO’s personal contributions, but on building a high-performing organization that can sustain and scale its impact.

The President & CEO will serve as a visible ‘public face’ of Osler Foundation and as one of its key ambassadors. The role will maintain meaningful personal responsibility for fundraising and donor relationships, including a focused portfolio of donors with capacity for transformational gifts, while enabling Foundation team members and volunteers to lead and deepen a broader portfolio of relationships.

The Foundation team works primarily out of the Peel Memorial Centre for Integrated Health and Wellness (Peel Memorial) located at 20 Lynch Street in Brampton. Regular travel to Osler sites and to donor meetings offsite is required.  This role requires frequent engagement with the community which often takes place outside of normal office hours.

About William Osler Health System

William Osler Health System (Osler) is a leading community teaching hospital system delivering world-class health care inspired by its people and communities who live in the growing and diverse communities of Brampton, North Etobicoke, Caledon, and surrounding areas.

Osler serves a community of over 1.3 million people in one of the fastest-growing and most culturally diverse regions of Ontario. Our region’s population growth rate is nearly triple the provincial average, with an expected 85% increase in our 70+ seniors’ population by 2030. As our community continues to grow, we continue to transform to help increase health care capacity.

Accredited with Exemplary Standing, Accreditation Canada’s highest rating for a Canadian hospital, Osler includes three hospital sites: Brampton Civic Hospital, Etobicoke General Hospital, and Peel Memorial Centre for Integrated Health and Wellness, which is being transformed into Brampton’s second hospital, as well as a Reactivation Care Unit, and a Withdrawal Management Centre. Osler’s two Emergency Departments are open 24/7 at Brampton Civic and Etobicoke General, and our Urgent Care Centre at Peel Memorial in Brampton provides 24/7 care for urgent but non-emergency illness or injury.

Operating with an annual budget exceeding $1 billion, Osler has more than 11,000 staff, physicians, learners, and volunteers. William Osler Health System manages approximately 1.23 million patient visits annually, which includes more than 315,000 emergency and urgent care visits.

Osler is a hub of innovation through the Osler Research Institute for Health Innovation (ORIHI) and is the primary clinical partner for Toronto Metropolitan University’s new School of Medicine. The team is proud to help advance excellent, evidence-based care, and is committed to sharing learnings for the benefit of all patients. Forging new partnerships and spearheading new ideas through robust research and education strategy, ORIHI is engaged in clinical trials that help patients access cutting-edge drugs and therapies, a global health program to help share learnings with and from others, partnerships with universities, and placement opportunities for students, physicians, fellows, and residents.

Looking to the future, Osler is transforming Peel Memorial into Brampton’s second hospital, which will include a new multi-storey tower that will house inpatient beds and expanded outpatient clinics. Osler is also expanding the cancer care program to bring more services, including radiation treatment – currently not available in Brampton or Etobicoke – closer to home for the community.

About Osler Foundation

We inspire our communities to invest in exceptional health care close to home.

Our Vision: Healthy communities powered by generosity.

Our Mission: Inspire our communities to invest in world-class health care close to home.

Our Values: Accountability • Collaboration • Excellence • Innovation • Integrity • Caring

As Osler continues to transform health care for our growing communities, increasing capacity across our hospital system, providing investment in new technology, and bringing new and enhanced services, the Foundation serves as its fundraising arm to raise philanthropic financial support.

All equipment in a hospital must be funded by the community, along with a portion of construction costs for new buildings and building renovations. This means we raise money for essentials like ventilators, vital signs monitors, vein finders, stretchers, wheelchairs, and electric beds.

Currently we’re engaged in a significant capital campaign that’s focused on raising funds to:

• Transform Peel Memorial into Brampton’s new hospital

• Build a comprehensive cancer care centre at Brampton Civic

• Ensure Etobicoke General has the equipment required to continue providing the specialized care the community needs

Thanks to the dedication of our staff, volunteers, and hospital partners, and the incredible generosity of our donors, last year the Osler Foundation generated in excess of $14M in cash revenue and over $59M in major gift fundraising production.

We have a team of around 25 staff working primarily at the main Foundation offices at Peel Memorial, with ‘storefront’ offices at the other hospital locations.

And as part of the Osler family, Osler Foundation is committed to providing a fulfilling work environment that inspires our staff to learn, innovate, and grow. Year after year, Osler is proud to be recognized as one of Greater Toronto’s Top Employers and one of Canada’s Best Diversity Employers. Osler Foundation is equally committed to supporting our employees through flexible work arrangements, professional development, and a commitment to creating an environment of inclusiveness and belonging.

Senior Director of Advancement

Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre

Salary: $110,000 - $145,000 - Salary is negotiable based on experience and education

Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre (MTC) is seeking an ambitious, strategic and deeply relationship-driven leader to serve as its Senior Director of Advancement at a pivotal moment in the organization’s evolution. This is a senior organizational leadership role and the successful candidate will be one of the key leaders shaping MTC’s future. Reporting to the Executive Director, the Senior Director of Advancement is someone who can lead and build a team, cultivate and steward relationships and have the confidence required to move the organization from aspiration to action. This is not simply a role about raising money. It is about helping more people see themselves as part of the future of the theatre, understand why MTC matters now and choose to invest in what it can become.

This leadership role sits at the heart of that next chapter for MTC. A major campaign is on the horizon and the organization needs someone with the experience, energy and judgement to help prepare for it. This is a role for someone who understands that philanthropy begins with relationships that are built over time, through trust, curiosity, generosity and shared experience.

About Royal

MTC As Canada’s oldest English-language regional theatre and Manitoba’s flagship theatre organization, MTC is entering a period of renewed momentum and long-term ambition. Founded in 1958, it was built on a powerful idea: that great theatre should belong to the people, not just the elites. Today, MTC produces theatre on two stages and tours work across the region. It supports artists and students, produces the Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival, develops new work, invests in Indigenous and Canadian storytelling, and welcomes audiences from across the province.

MTC exists to hold an open door to all Manitobans, to share stories that connect us to each other and to our world. We envision MTC as Canada’s preeminent regional theatre, delivering unrivalled excellence, and inspiring Manitobans through the transformative power of storytelling.

MTC is working to become more open, more connected, more accessible and more deeply woven into the life of Manitoba. The Senior Director of Advancement will be instrumental in helping shape the next chapter by strengthening relationships with people and organizations who care about the future of theatre, culture, community and civic life.

Why join MTC?

Royal MTC is entering one of the most exciting chapters in its history, making this a rare opportunity to help shape the future of one of Canada's leading cultural institutions.

While leading a strong advancement program is fundamental to the role, the opportunity is much broader. You will help build the relationships, leadership capacity, volunteer engagement, and campaign readiness that will support MTC's next era of growth and community impact.

You will work alongside ambitious artistic and executive leadership, an engaged Board of Trustees, a passionate staff team, a vibrant artistic community and audiences who care deeply about the future of the theatre. Together, you will help ensure MTC remains artistically excellent, welcoming, relevant, and sustainable for generations of Manitobans.

Most importantly, you will help more people understand that supporting Royal MTC is about far more than theatre. It is an investment in artists. In young people. In community. In a vibrant downtown Winnipeg. In public imagination & creativity. An investment in Manitoba's future.

The Community

Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre is proud to call Manitoba home. Royal MTC is located in Winnipeg on Treaty 1, the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg, Inninewak, Anishinewak, Dakota Oyate, and Denesuline, and the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. We are thankful for the benefits sharing this land has afforded us, acknowledge the responsibilities of the Treaties, and embrace the opportunity to partner with Indigenous communities in the spirit of reconciliation and collaboration.

Winnipeg is one of Canada's great arts and cultural cities: creative, collaborative and community-minded. Home to a thriving network of artists, theatres, festivals, musicians, dancers and cultural organizations, it offers the opportunity to build a meaningful career within a nationally respected arts ecosystem while making a tangible impact on the cultural life of the community.

The city also offers an exceptional quality of life. With a comparatively affordable cost of living, vibrant neighbourhoods, remarkable restaurants, abundant green spaces and easy access to Manitoba's lakes and outdoor recreation, Winnipeg provides the opportunity to build both a rewarding career and a fulfilling life.

For someone who wants to help shape the future of the arts while contributing to a dynamic and welcoming community, Winnipeg offers an exceptional place to call home.

ABOUT THE CANADIAN MUSEUM OF HISTORY

The Canadian Museum of History (CMH) is an autonomous federal Crown Corporation under the Museums Act that oversees three museums: the Canadian Museum of History, the Canadian War Museum and the Virtual Museum of New France.   Together, the Museums deliver on their mandate to enhance Canadians’ knowledge, understanding and appreciation of events, experiences, people and objects that reflect and have shaped Canada’s history and identity, and to enhance their awareness of world history and cultures.

Located on the traditional, unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabe, the Canadian Museum of History is Canada’s largest museum of human history. It is also one of the country’s most-visited museums, welcoming thousands of visitors per year to its complex in the heart of the National Capital Region.

As a respected centre of museological excellence, the Canadian Museum of History actively shares Canada’s human and military history across Canada and around the world. Equally important is its corporate culture, which is rooted in the principles of equity, diversity, inclusion and accessibility, with a particular focus on ensuring equal opportunity for all.

The Canadian Museum of History facility is also home to the Canadian Children’s Museum, a 500-seat theatre, and the 295-seat CINÉ+ movie theatre featuring a large 3D screen and giant dome. Ongoing exhibitions include the spectacular Grand Hall, the First Peoples Hall, and the Canadian History Hall. The Museum also features temporary exhibitions focusing on Indigenous, Canadian, and world histories and cultures. Many of these temporary exhibitions are developed in collaboration with Indigenous and other communities; others are produced by Canadian or international institutions.

In addition to sharing knowledge physically through travelling exhibitions, educational kits, publications, and lectures, the Museum offers a rich variety of digital content across its websites, including online exhibitions, podcasts, virtual tours, resources for teachers, games, activities, and access to collections and cutting-edge research.

Research activities are undertaken in a wide variety of areas, and in collaboration with communities and partners. Research is primarily concentrated in the areas of Canadian history, Indigenous histories, art, and cultures, archaeology, and cultural expression. Beyond scholarly research, staff conduct fieldwork in partnership with Indigenous and other cultural communities, engage in collaborative community-based projects, and work with institutions both at home and abroad.

In addition to administering the Canadian Museum of History, the Canadian War Museum, and the Virtual Museum of New France, the Canadian Museum of History crown corporation manages Digital Museums Canada (DMC) with financial support from the Government of Canada.

ABOUT THE CANADIAN WAR MUSEUM

The Canadian War Museum is Canada’s national museum of military history and one of the world’s most respected museums for the study and understanding of armed conflict.

The Museum traces its origins back to 1880, when it consisted primarily of a collection of militia artifacts. The Museum opened at its new location on the LeBreton Flats site in downtown Ottawa on May 8, 2005. Its opening not only marked the 60th anniversary of the end of the Second World War in Europe (V-E Day) but also the 125th anniversary of the Museum itself. Since its opening in 2005, the Museum has welcomed approximately 500,000 visitors every year.

The Museum’s exhibition galleries and public programs have been designed to emphasize the human experience of war. The Canadian Experience Galleries present the military history of Canada from earliest times to present day, as well as Canada’s history of honouring and remembrance. Each gallery highlights defining moments in Canada’s military history and the ways in which past events have shaped the nation.

The Museum’s collections are among the finest military holdings in the world, including rare vehicles, artillery, uniforms, medals, personal memoirs and 14,000 works in the Beaverbrook Collection of War Art. In total, the collection comprises more than 3 million artifacts, specimens, works of art, written documents and sound and visual recordings. The Military History Research Centre houses the George Metcalf Archival Collection and the Hartland Molson Library. These extensive collections of primary and secondary research material document Canada’s rich military history.

ABOUT THE FOUNDATION OF THE CANADIAN MUSEUM OF HISTORY AND CANADIAN WAR MUSEUM

By recently establishing a philanthropic foundation, the Canadian Museum of History is responding to a pivotal moment in our country’s story, when Canadians are increasingly drawn to our shared heritage and identity, by renewing and strengthening its philanthropic purpose to inspire deeper connection and lasting impact.

The Foundation of the Canadian Museum of History and Canadian War Museum will:

• Enable significant growth in major and transformative gift fundraising

• Create a singularly focused and mission-aligned philanthropic vehicle

• Establish an independent, strategic governance model

• Position the CMHCWM Foundation competitively within the national cultural philanthropic landscape

• Attract high-quality leadership and long-term partners

The CMHCWM Foundation operates separately from the CMH and is governed by a growing board of Directors led by the inaugural Board Chair, Elizabeth Roscoe.  The CMHCWM Foundation Board members, with the collaboration of the CMH CEO, have begun working with KCI to prepare the Foundation for a new President and laying the groundwork for the inaugural fundraising strategy.

The CMHCWM Foundation will lead all fundraising initiatives including annual giving, mid-level gifts, major gifts, planned giving and sponsorships.  An enhanced major gift philanthropy strategy will be essential to positioning the museums to embrace their future programming with even greater scale and ambition.   As a result, an exciting element of the CMHCWM Foundation’s inaugural fundraising strategy will include the Canadian Children’s Museum renewal as the flagship campaign initiative. It is a CMH strategic priority project in the early stages of development. This museum is beloved and well-attended – an integral part of the Canadian History Museum’s success.

As part of the work being done to establish the CMHCWM Foundation, a Relationship Agreement/MOU with the CMH is in the process of being developed.  This agreement clearly defines roles and responsibilities, communication protocols, how the two organizations will work together, what services are exchanged, etc., ensuring that the new CMHCWM Foundation, its Board and new President and team are set up for the greatest success.

À PROPOS DU MUSÉE CANADIEN DE L’HISTOIRE

Le Musée canadien de l’histoire (MCH) est une société d’État autonome sous le régime de la Loi sur les musées qui est responsable de trois musées : le Musée canadien de l’histoire, le Musée canadien de la guerre et le Musée virtuel de la Nouvelle-France. Ensemble, ces musées s’acquittent de leur mandat, qui consiste à accroître la connaissance, la compréhension et le degré d’appréciation des Canadiens et des Canadiennes à l’égard d’événements, d’expériences, de personnes et d’objets qui incarnent et qui ont façonné l’histoire et l’identité canadienne, ainsi que de les sensibiliser à l’histoire et aux cultures du reste du monde.

Situé sur le territoire traditionnel non cédé du peuple algonquin Anishinabeg, le Musée canadien de l’histoire est le plus grand musée d’histoire humaine au Canada. Chaque année, il accueille des milliers de personnes dans son célèbre complexe situé au cœur de la région de la capitale nationale, ce qui en fait l’un des musées les plus fréquentés au pays.

Centre d’excellence muséologique respecté, le Musée canadien de l’histoire fait rayonner l’histoire humaine et militaire du Canada, et ce, au sein même de nos frontières comme dans le monde entier. Tout aussi importante est sa culture entrepreneuriale, ancrée dans les principes d’équité, de diversité, d’inclusion et d’accessibilité, avec un accent particulier sur l’égalité des chances pour tous.

Le Musée canadien de l’histoire abrite également le Musée canadien des enfants, un théâtre de 500 places et le cinéma CINÉ+ de 295 places, doté d’un grand écran 3D et d’un dôme géant. Ses expositions permanentes comprennent la spectaculaire Grande galerie, la salle des Premiers Peuples et la salle de l’Histoire canadienne. L’établissement présente également des expositions spéciales sur l’histoire et les cultures autochtones, canadiennes et d’ailleurs dans le monde. Bon nombre de ces expositions sont conçues en collaboration avec des communautés autochtones ou autres, et d’autres sont produites par des institutions canadiennes ou internationales.

En plus de la diffusion directe de connaissances au moyen d’expositions itinérantes, de trousses éducatives, de publications et de conférences, le Musée offre une vaste gamme de contenus numériques sur ses sites Web, dont des expositions en ligne, des balados, des visites virtuelles, des ressources pédagogiques, des jeux, des activités, et l’accès à des collections ainsi qu’à une recherche d’avant-garde.

Il mène des recherches dans de nombreux domaines, ainsi qu’en collaboration avec des communautés et des partenaires. Cette recherche se concentre principalement sur l’histoire canadienne, l’histoire en général, les arts et les cultures autochtones, l’archéologie et l’expression culturelle. Parallèlement à la recherche formelle, le personnel fait du travail sur le terrain en partenariat avec diverses communautés – autochtones et autres. Il participe aussi à des projets communautaires collaboratifs et fait équipe avec des institutions canadiennes et étrangères.

En plus d’administrer le Musée canadien de l’histoire, le Musée canadien de la guerre et le Musée virtuel de la Nouvelle-France, la société d’État gère Musées numériques Canada, avec le soutien financier du gouvernement du Canada. Musées numériques Canada constitue le principal programme d’investissement du genre au pays ; il contribue à renforcer la capacité numérique des organismes patrimoniaux, culturels et autochtones et fait connaître au reste du monde une grande diversité d’histoires ancrées dans la réalité canadienne.

Orientations stratégiques 2023-2029

Cinq orientations visent à nous aider à mieux cibler nos efforts, en plus de raviver et affirmer notre identité d’organisation résolument tournée vers l’avenir.

• Favoriser une culture organisationnelle novatrice qui suscite le respect, l’équité et l’appartenance

À PROPOS DU MUSÉE CANADIEN DE LA GUERRE

Le Musée canadien de la guerre est le musée national d’histoire militaire au Canada et l’un des centres muséologiques les plus respectés au monde pour l’étude et la compréhension des conflits armés.

Les origines du Musée canadien de la guerre remontent à 1880, à l’époque où celui-ci réunissait essentiellement une collection d’artefacts de la milice. Le Musée a ouvert les portes de sa nouvelle demeure, sur le site des plaines LeBreton, au cœur de la ville d’Ottawa, le 8 mai 2005. Son inauguration a non seulement commémoré le 60e anniversaire de la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale en Europe (jour de la Victoire en Europe), mais aussi le 125e anniversaire du Musée lui-même. Depuis son ouverture en 2005, le Musée accueille environ 500 000 visiteurs par année.

Ses galeries d’exposition et ses programmes publics ont été conçus pour mettre l’accent sur l’expérience humaine de la guerre. Les Galeries sur le Canada et les conflits présentent l’histoire militaire du Canada depuis ses débuts jusqu’à nos jours, ainsi que l’évolution des pratiques de commémoration au Canada. Chaque galerie met en lumière des moments marquants de l’histoire militaire du Canada et les événements du passé qui ont façonné la nation.

Les collections militaires du Musée comptent parmi les plus belles au monde. Elles comprennent des véhicules rares, des pièces d’artillerie, des uniformes, des médailles, des souvenirs personnels et 14 000 œuvres d’art de la collection Beaverbrook. La collection complète comporte plus de 3 millions d’artefacts, de spécimens, d’œuvres d’art, de documents d’archives et d’enregistrements sonores et visuels. Le Centre de recherche sur l’histoire militaire abrite la Collection d’archives George-Metcalf et la Bibliothèque Hartland-Molson. Ces importantes collections contiennent des documents de recherche primaire et secondaire qui témoignent de la riche histoire militaire du Canada.

À PROPOS DE LA FONDATION DU MUSÉE CANADIEN DE L’HISTOIRE ET DU MUSÉE CANADIEN DE LA GUERRE

En créant récemment une fondation philanthropique, le Musée canadien de l’histoire traite un moment charnière de l’histoire de notre pays, dans un contexte où l’intérêt pour le patrimoine et l’identité collective est en hausse. Ce faisant, il réaffirme et consolide sa mission philanthropique, la Fondation contribuant à établir des relations encore plus durables et à générer un impact soutenu.

La Fondation du Musée canadien de l’histoire et du Musée canadien de la guerre a comme objectifs :

• de permettre une croissance significative des fonds amassés sous forme de dons majeurs et transformateurs ;

• de créer un instrument philanthropique à vocation unique, en parfaite cohérence avec la mission ;

• de mettre en place un modèle de gouvernance indépendant et stratégique ;

• d’occuper un positionnement concurrentiel dans le paysage philanthropique culturel national ;

• d’attirer des cadres de haut niveau et des partenaires de longue durée.

La Fondation fonctionne indépendamment du Musée canadien de l’histoire et elle est dirigée par un conseil d’administration en pleine expansion, présidé depuis ses débuts par Elizabeth Roscoe. Les membres du C.A. unissent leurs efforts à ceux de la PDG du Musée et de KCI pour préparer la Fondation à l’arrivée d’une nouvelle personne à la présidence et jeter les bases de la stratégie de collecte de fonds inaugurale.

La Fondation dirigera l’ensemble des programmes de collecte de fonds, notamment les dons annuels, les dons de niveau intermédiaire, les dons majeurs, les dons planifiés et les commandites. Une approche plus structurée des dons majeurs donnera aux musées les moyens d’envisager leur programmation à venir à un niveau d’ambition supérieur. Pour cette raison, la première campagne de financement de la Fondation mettra de l’avant le renouvellement du Musée canadien des enfants comme projet phare. Ce projet stratégique prioritaire du Musée canadien de l’histoire en est à ses débuts. Très apprécié et très fréquenté, il contribue incontestablement au succès du Musée canadien de l’histoire.

Dans le cadre du projet de mise en place de la Fondation, un accord de partenariat/protocole d’entente avec le Musée canadien de l’histoire est en cours d’élaboration. Cet accord définit clairement les rôles et les responsabilités, les protocoles de communication, la manière dont les deux organisations travailleront ensemble, les services qui seront échangés, etc., afin d’assurer que la nouvelle Fondation, son conseil d’administration, le nouveau titulaire de présidence et son équipe disposent de tout le nécessaire pour maximiser leur succès.

We have been supported by and have a close relationship with the OneSky Legacy Foundation which was established in 2006 to support the stewardship of resources accumulated over the first twenty years of our history. Now, we are looking to grow a stronger presence within our community and a culture of philanthropy within the organization, and our care holders, so we can maintain our current financial stability and support operational growth.

About the Agency

Established in 1966, as a charitable organization, OneSky has served the South Okanagan community providing services such as Early Childhood Services, Youth and Family Services, Community Health and Housing Services, Community Inclusion/Supportive Living Services, Senior Wellness Services, and some fee-based services to meet emerging community needs.

We are seeking an innovative leader who can share the OneSky story and translate the increasing complexity of social services in the South Okanagan community into donor-ready opportunities. This role is pivotal in helping OneSky deliver on our strategic directions, which guide our service delivery.

• Develop best practices, evaluation frameworks, and operational processes to support excellence in communications and fundraising.

ABOUT ARTHRITIS SOCIETY CANADA

More than six million Canadians live with arthritis – that’s more than diabetes, heart disease, cancer, stroke, and dementia combined. It costs the economy $45.9 billion annually in healthcare spending and lost productivity. Yet arthritis research is underfunded, awarded less than two percent of investment from Canada’s largest federal funder of health research.

ASC recently released Arthritis Action Now, the first unified plan to end the arthritis crisis. Our new Report Card assigned low and failing grades to every single province and territory, highlighting widespread gaps in access to care, treatments, and research. That’s why 21 leading organizations came together with input from over 100,000 Canadians to build this plan. It’s a comprehensive roadmap to prevent, better treat, and ultimately cure arthritis — tackling everything from cutting wait times for joint replacements, and getting kids faster access to critical medications, to investing in life-changing research. This plan demands immediate government investment to become a reality.

This year, ASC advanced groundbreaking discoveries, mobilized national advocacy, supported people directly through expanded services, and accelerated game-changing ideas through strategic partnerships — all to transform arthritis healthcare outcomes.

As Canada’s largest charitable funder of arthritis research, ASC invested $7 million last year to drive bold discoveries, funding 113 game-changing projects across the country. Guided by a gold standard peer-review process and insights from people with arthritis, they launched 17 new research projects to improve diagnosis, prevention and treatment, and to move closer to finding cures.

Canada’s top scientific and entrepreneurial minds are advancing bold solutions to transform arthritis care. Through ASC’s partnership with Creative Destruction Lab (CDL), they supported four companies innovating in precision medicine, non-opioid pain management and chronic inflammation. In addition, the Newborn Arthritis Prevention Screening Project completed over 2,000 scans across Alberta and identified 45 cases of hip dysplasia – many that would have gone undetected. These breakthroughs are shaping the future of arthritis prevention and treatment for generations.

Last year, over 65,000 people accessed trusted information through Arthritis Talks, while many more found personalized supports through Arthritis Line and Arthritis Connections. During Arthritis Awareness Month, ASC carried a bold message nationwide: arthritis steals – and we must act. Together, ASC is changing the conversation, exposing the realities of this often-invisible disease, and empowering people to face their diagnosis with knowledge, resilience, and hope.

Arthritis Society Canada is honored to be a Canada’s Most Admired™ Corporate Cultures Award winner, and proud to be accredited under Imagine Canada’s Standards Program.

ASC is an organization where people feel engaged, valued, and proud of the work they do. 2025 employee data indicated that 92% of employees feel a sense of belonging at ASC, 93% feel safe and respected when sharing their ideas and opinions, and 93% are proud to work at Arthritis Society Canada.

ARTHRITIS ACTION NOW

Arthritis Action Now is Canada’s first actionable, coordinated strategy to transform prevention, care, and research for arthritis.

In 2023, Canada’s arthritis community came together with an unprecedented sense of urgency and shared purpose. ASC and 20 other organizations representing patients, researchers, clinicians and advocates, joined forces to confront the challenges faced by millions of people in Canada. All together, more than 100,000 Canadians have been engaged in the largest consultation ever conducted on arthritis in Canada.

Arthritis Action Now has three interconnected pathways—policy priorities, research and innovation, and catalysts for change—to drive transformative change for the more than six million people in Canada with arthritis.

Pillar 1: Policy Priorities

ASC calls on provincial, territorial and federal governments to create and support legislation and funding for timely, appropriate and inclusive arthritis care; to reduce arthritis-related disability and associated costs, and to position Canada as a global leader in research, prevention and treatment innovation.

Pillar 2: Research and Innovation Priorities

Created by Canada’s scientific community, the research and innovation priorities will galvanize research institutions and funders to ultimately cure arthritis. This will require robust collaboration, increased investment and clear pathways to implementation.

Pillar 3: Catalysts for Change

ASC has identified nine initiatives that will spur transformation – including precision medicine, protecting youth from future arthritis, advancing arthritis equity and arthritis aware workplaces – and call on public, private and philanthropic sectors to invest.

You can read the full Arthritis Action Now plan here.

FUNDRAISING AT ARTHRITIS SOCIETY CANADA

The revenue development team at ASC is made up of talented fundraising professionals across Canada, in the areas of major giving, planned giving, events, community partnerships, and direct response, who work closely with its community of generous loyal donors to turn shared visions, passions and interests into meaningful impact in fighting the fire of arthritis. ASC is a nationwide charity with local impact, and the donations from these individuals makes a difference for people living with arthritis in every province.

As Arthritis Society Canada plans to grow its impact across the country through Arthritis Action Now, it is investing in the expansion of its national major gifts program. Major giving is a priority focus area of the growth strategy, underpinned by efforts that will deepen donor relationships and increase philanthropic revenue.  Alongside this, there is also a priority focus on building and growing the integrated digital marketing strategy across the organization.
