Sustainability
We cannot do this alone.
The transformative work of the P.O.W.E.R. Women’s Cardiovascular Health Program requires collective effort and sustained investment. To truly change the landscape of women’s cardiovascular health, we need the support of our community—patients, partners, and philanthropists who believe in a future where women receive the care they deserve.
Under the guidance of the Advisory Board, we are building the foundation to ensure that our work continues—not just today, but for generations to come. Our goal is to grow the capacity and infrastructure needed to sustain the high-impact, high-intensity research, clinical care, and innovation that define our centre.
With your support, we can continue advancing science, training future leaders, and delivering equitable, life-saving care to women across Canada and beyond.

Through the generosity of golfers, sponsors, and supporters, funds were raised in support of the P.O.W.E.R. Women’s Cardiovascular Health Program helping advance early detection, prevention, and research-driven approaches to improve women’s cardiovascular health and well-being.
