Halifax, N.S. (Dec. 17, 2025) – The spirit of holiday giving was in the air at the IWK this
week, as the IWK Foundation celebrated the generosity of the Atlantic Canada Health Care
Coalition Society (ACHCCS).
Fern Tardif, Executive Director, ACHCCS, proudly announced their $20,000 gift—doubling
their inaugural donation to the IWK last year and hoping to increase their donation again
next year to continue to support the care the IWK provides to families across Atlantic
Canada. Their gift will go toward the IWK Emergency Department Redevelopment.
“With over 325,000 members, we have families right across the Atlantic region who know
first-hand what it means to need the IWK at some time in their lives,” said Tardif.
“Supporting the exceptional work of the IWK truly extends the support we offer to our
members, while also benefitting so many more families in the communities we serve.
We’re proud to bring the power of our collective to help improve the health and well-being
of Atlantic Canadians, especially at this time of year."
