**Officer, Fundraising Events**

West Park Healthcare Centre Foundation

Hiring Range: $62,000 to $68,000

A national and global recognized leader in rehabilitation, complex and long-term care, West Park Healthcare Centre helps people recovering from serious injury and illness get their lives back. The specialized rehabilitation provided at West Park empowers patients with the skills, knowledge and confidence to lead productive and independent lives in the community.

With our rapidly increasing ageing population requiring health care services, West Park is redeveloping its 27-acre Toronto campus along the Humber River to expand its programs, including a new, state-of-the-art hospital slated to open its doors in late 2023 and creating outdoor therapeutic spaces by mid-2025.

West Park Foundation is actively pursuing the $80 million Get Your Life Back Campaign (GYLB) to support the redevelopment. The Foundation is looking for a highly-motivated individual to join its team. There are numerous opportunities for the Foundation to engage with donors given the excitement around the new West Park. It is a “once-in-a-generation” opportunity to showcase our new hospital building and therapeutic grounds.
