Grand Opening
The Murphy & Helen Hull Robotics Centre
Centre made possible by $10 million
gift from the late Marian (Murphy)
Hull & Mrs. Helen Hull
On June 5, 2012, Mrs. Helen Hull, joined by family and
friends, celebrated the opening of the new Murphy and Helen
Hull Robotics Centre at Humber River Regional Hospital. The
Centre was made possible thanks to an amazing $10 million
gift from Mrs. Hull and her late husband Marian (Murphy) Hull.
“Murphy made such an impact over his lifetime. Together,
Helen and Murphy Hull have made a positive and lasting
contribution to our community in a manner that only a very
small few ever have,” explains Eddy Battiston, Chair of
the Board, Humber River Regional Hospital Foundation.
“Their support of our hospital over the years, and now our
new Robotics Centre, has, and will continue to, save lives,
and change others for the better. There is no stronger legacy
a citizen can bestow on their community.”
The Centre features a da Vinci Surgical Robot with Skills
Simulator. With advanced 3D HD visualization; dexterity
and range of motion greater than even the human
hand; and motion technology which preserves natural
eye-hand-instrument alignment, the da Vinci robot
provides unparalleled precision, dexterity and control that
enable a minimally invasive approach to many complex
surgical procedures.
Mr. Hull was one of Humber River Regional Hospital’s most
dedicated community champions. In a letter to the hospital
dated just before Mr. Hull’s passing, Mr. and Mrs. Hull explained
that the gift was “in appreciation of the wonderful care provided
by your fine hospital.”
According to Dr. Rueben Devlin, President and CEO of Humber
River Regional Hospital, the benefits of the Hull family’s gift are
far-reaching.
“Murphy’s commitment to our hospital was unwavering, even
in his final days. Now, thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Hull’s generosity,
our hospital has the very latest in robotic surgery technology,
enabling our hospital to provide even more minimally invasive
surgery options for patients,” states Dr. Devlin. “For some it
will mean more precise, safer care, with shorter healing times
and less pain throughout. Everyone at Humber is extremely
grateful for Murphy and Helen’s financial support and for their
faith in our hospital.”

Jack Kay – Chair, Campaign,
Humber River Regional Hospital
CEO, Apotex Inc.
Dear friends,
The best investment you can make is in your health.
Every time I drive past the new hospital’s construction
site and observe its impressive progress, my excitement
for this monumental project grows. I am honoured to
be part of a development that is going to transform
healthcare – so much so that I have personally pledged
$1 million through The Kay Family Foundation, as
well as another $1 million in planned giving. The new
Humber River Regional Hospital’s digital initiative
will facilitate a patient-centered care model that will
augment our exceptional programs and services and
enable physicians to deliver exemplary healthcare
to our community in our community.
Building North America’s first fully digital hospital is
no small task. Community leaders like our financial
institutions understand that our innovative new hospital
will function as a model for the future of healthcare.
They have lent their significant support to a hospital that
will stake out new territory in medical technologies to
promote cost and energy savings, sustainable healthcare,
and the most efficient hospital on the continent.
We continue to receive letters of thanks and
encouragement from our individual donors. We
are particularly touched by individuals who give so
selflessly of their hard earned money to invest in a
hospital that will care for their family and loved ones.
I want to take this opportunity to thank those who have
already lent their support. But we can’t stop now.
Every donation helps. Together, we will build a
hospital that is needed in our community.
No one is more aware of this need than our board
of directors, volunteers, and hospital staff. We are
on a mission to build a hospital that will provide our
community the very best healthcare close to home. We
continue to work and fundraise to ensure that the new
Humber River Regional Hospital meets and exceeds
the expectations of a community that has inspired our
visionary new facility.
Sincerely,
IC Savings pledges
$1,000,000 for New
Humber River Regional Hospital
Italian Canadian Savings & Credit Union (IC Savings)
announced a pledge of $1 million over the next 10 years
towards building the new, state-of-the-art Humber River
Regional Hospital under construction at Keele St. and Hwy
401. The Emergency Triage Waiting Area in the new hospital
will be named for IC Savings in recognition of this gift.
“This pledge to Humber River Regional Hospital is a reflection
of our commitment to our members, neighbourhoods and
communities,” says Fausto Gaudio, President and CEO of IC
Savings. “We set out to create a community financial institution,
an organization that could make a real difference, not only in
members’ lives directly, but in the community at large.”
IC Savings has a mandate of community and neighbourhood
involvement; in 2011 IC Savings gave approximately 10% of
profits in charitable donations in conjunction with the IC Savings
Foundation and in sponsorships to community groups.
“Our hospital has been enriched beyond measure by the
contributions of our Italian-Canadian community over the
generations,” notes HRRH President & CEO Rueben Devlin.
“Today’s pledge by IC Savings honours that history, and
speaks to their own depth of commitment to continuing that
great tradition. We are grateful to Mr. Gaudio and everyone
at IC Savings for this amazing show of support for our
redevelopment project.”
The new hospital will be a place where patients are empowered
to participate in all aspects of their care. In partnership with
their team of care providers, patients and families will take
advantage of the technologies available in North America’s
first fully digital hospital to enhance the personal interactions
that are the basis of great hospital care.
“We applaud IC Savings for their generosity, for their leadership
and for their early commitment to our $225 million campaign,”
said Jack Kay, Campaign Chairman, Humber River Regional
Hospital Foundation. “This gift is a tremendous demonstration
of their belief in our shared vision to bring accessible, world
class healthcare to this community. We feel privileged that
Mr. Gaudio will continue to champion our cause as a new
member of our Campaign Cabinet.”

Construction
Update
To check up on our construction progress, view our
web cam of the new campus at www.hrrh.ca
As we look to 2015, we will continue
to push ahead, placing our patients
at the centre of all we do.
With so much activity at Keele Street
and Highway 401, it’s hard to miss our
brand new hospital going up, one floor
at a time, right before our eyes.
The site of our new home is always bustling with activity.
On Tuesday, September 11, we reached another milestone
in the history of Humber River Regional Hospital by holding
our Hospital Board meeting – for the first time – on our
new hospital site; and welcoming our Board Members on
the grounds of what will be a new and innovative model of
patient care for our community and beyond.
Before the meeting, in collaboration with Plenary Healthcare
Partnerships, we engaged Members in a mandatory site
safety orientation and outfitted them in the necessary personal
protective equipment for a tour around the construction site.
Members commented on the remarkable progress of the work
and expressed their excitement for the promise of ‘what’s to
come.’ While there is still a lot of work ahead, there are many
exciting stages and developments in our new hospital project
that we are looking forward to sharing with all of you.

Humber Family Support
Giving from
the Inside Out
When we work together, there are no limits to what we can
achieve. The staff, physicians and volunteers of Humber are
proving this every day – and even more so in the recent
months with the launch of the Humber Family Campaign.
Just like the family we are, when asked, the Humber Family
came together in support of our exciting new hospital and
of the patients and community that will benefit from the new
state-of-the-art hospital we are building together.
The Humber Family Campaign was launched on May 14th
and staff, volunteers and physicians were engaged in the
campaign through events, activities and contests. From
dessert parties and BBQ’s, to trivia contests and bake
sales, the Family Campaign was successful in generating
significant financial and volunteer support from those
closest to Humber.
When those that know an organization inside-out support
it in such a significant way, it clearly shows the community
that this cause is an important one. Not only are the Humber
Family members delivering the best care possible, they are
going above and beyond to support the community.
When you are visiting any of the Humber sites, have a look
for staff, volunteers and physicians wearing their “I Support
Humber” buttons and thank them for supporting our
community in so many ways.
This is just the beginning of our plans to engage the Humber
community. During the coming years we will continue to
work to get everyone involved in building this hospital. We
thank the Humber family donors for taking the first important
steps and setting such a remarkable standard of giving!
To see a full list of supporters, please see the Donor List at
the back of this newsletter.

In My Own Words
Why I Give
to Humber
by Alexandra Christofides
Certified Child Life Specialist, Registered Early Childhood Educator
I have been a staff at Humber River Regional Hospital for 14 years
as a Child Life Specialist under the Women’s & Children’s Health
Care Program-Child Life Services. I also worked in a daycare and
at a children’s developmental centre in this community for 6 years
– in total, I have worked in this community 20 years with children
and families. My heart is in this community and although I have no
children of my own, I feel as though I have mothered thousands
of children and grandmothered thousands more parents in this
community. I have seen many children that I have toilet trained years
ago, grow up and come to Humber River Regional Hospital having
their own children….boy I feel old, but what a special reunion
– it feels like family!
I like to support my family and that is why I donate to the Humber
River Regional Hospital Family Campaign, because to me, the
Humber River community is family. I am a caring, dedicated
professional and have a passion for working with infants, children,
teens and their families in hospital and have seen first hand over the
years what a huge difference sponsorship and donations can make
for an infant, child, teen, parent or family member in hospital.
With staff and community donations
we have been able to:
• Send a group of children that were chronically ill, including a little
girl who was palliative, to participate in “Dreams Take Flight” and
visit Disney World for the first time
• Provide TV’s with cable in all children’s rooms
• Create and furnish a Family Lounge & Playroom
• Purchase new medical equipment, lounge sleeping pull out cots
for parents on paediatrics, two beautiful therapeutic fish tanks,
portable laptop computers with internet for kids, teens, parents
to use, portable Wii’s with games & DVD players with movies,
computers for kids in the playroom, child friendly decals
to decorate the units with, treatment room with TV/DVD and
distractions toys
• Develop a program for parents to be with their child to provide
comfort & support during anaesthesia
• Provide colouring books, crayons, toys… and lots, lots more
Staff and community donations are so important to help us with the
building of our new hospital and to be able to continue to provide
all of these things and much more to ensure that all of our patients,
including children and their parents, have the most comfortable,
positive hospital experience that we could possibly give them.
This is our obligation to our community and I encourage you to also
donate with your heart to help us make this new hospital the best it
can be for our family community!
SPOTLIGHT
TARIC Islamic Centre
We will be using the health facilities so we should contribute
whatever we can to see its completion. TARIC is an integral
part of the community and we are ready to step forward and
show our support.”
Thank you TARIC for leading the way and showing Toronto the
great things that can happen when a hospital shares a vision
with its community.
Securing the Future of H R RH
All it takes is one. One leader to step up, get behind a cause and
inspire others to do the same. That’s why HRRH Foundation
is so pleased to announce our partnership with TARIC Islamic
Centre – an organization that has taken a leadership role in
the community, championing Humber’s cause and motivating
others to do the same.
Through the efforts of TARIC, numerous other community
groups have joined Humber’s cause, forming “Muslim Friends
of Humber” – a collective that will raise a total of $250,000
over 5 years to help build and equip the new Humber River
Regional Hospital.
“Humber is important to TARIC because we are part of the
community, part of the Humber region and therefore we
feel it incumbent on us to help build a centre we will all be
benefiting from,” states Haroon Salamat, Chairman for the
TARIC Islamic Centre.
Humber’s Church Street site is not more than two kilometers
away from TARIC Islamic Centre, located at Jane Street
and Beverley Hills Drive. The new Humber will be a facility
that most of the congregation will use for medical attention,
and the members are convinced that the quality of care will
be excellent.
“TARIC is the first community group to have signed on as a
partner in this bold new venture to build a new acute care
hospital, focused on patient-centered care and efficiency.
The vision is to create a lean, green and digital hospital that
will enhance all aspects of quality care delivery, increasing
efficiency, accuracy and safety,” explains Salamat. “Other
Muslim communities have led the way in collaborating with
their local hospitals in providing better facilities. We too can
and must come on board to assist our hospital in reaching its
goal of $225 million if we want to have topnotch health care
provided by the most qualified professionals.
Simple and Tax
Effective Ways
to Donate
The Fall season is in full swing and the end of the year is
quickly approaching. During this time many people turn their
attention to income tax and estate planning. Many of HHRH’s
supporters donate during this time using simple and tax
effective methods.
Bequest in Will – You may be surprised how easy it is to make
a provision for HRRH Foundation in your estate plans and the
benefits your gift can have. Often legacy gifts can be more
substantial that any donation made during one’s lifetime,
while also providing an excellent way to reduce taxes owed
on your estate.
If you are considering making a legacy gift to HRRH, let us
help. We can ensure the process is as straightforward as
possible and that your wishes are honoured.
Gifts of Securities – Recent changes to the tax laws have
made it more attractive for donors to make a gift through the
donation of appreciated securities, mutual funds, bonds or
options because you are 100% exempt from paying capital
gains tax. The charitable tax receipt will also help to offset
taxes payable on other income. A direct donation of securities
to HRRH Foundation is now one of the most effective way of
saving taxes while also supporting our hospital.
The process is easy and should include consultation with your
financial or estate planning advisor. To discuss any one of the
above options or for more information, please contact:
Rosanna Petricca, CFRE at 416-249-8111 ext: 3984
or via email at rpetricca@hrrh.on.ca.

Humber Goes Hollywood
Unforgettable!
Grammy legend Natalie Cole helps
Humber River Regional Hospital Raise
Almost Half a Million Dollars
Legendary singer Natalie Cole delivered an unforgettable
performance, helping the Humber River Regional Hospital
Foundation raise almost $500,000 last evening to support
the construction of the NEW Humber River Regional Hospital.
The renowned performer wowed over 700 guests with
breathtaking renditions of some of the songs that have
made her a nine time Grammy Award winner. Other
highlights of the evening included the presentation of the
first ever Humber River “No Limits” awards: created to
recognize special individuals in our community who stand as
extraordinary examples of Humber’s vision for the future of
its own organization.
Mrs. Helen Hull and her husband, the late Mr. Murphy Hull
were the first honourees. “For generations the Hull family
has given selflessly to their community and to our hospital.
Murphy Hull’s contributions to Humber River are inspiring:
Director; Chairman; Donor – no aspect of our hospital – his
hospital – wanted for his attention,” said HRRH President &
CEO, Dr. Rueben Devlin. The Hull family’s $10 Million donation
in support of the Hospital’s robotic surgery program was
singled out for special recognition.
Dr. Roberta Bondar was also honoured for challenging
boundaries and pushing the edge of innovation with her work
as an accomplished astronaut, physician, scientific researcher,
photographer and author – all of which embody the values
and ideals of Humber.
“Dr. Bondar has shown that when you are passionate in pursuit
of your dream, there are no limits to how far you can go. Our
hospital aspires to bring that passion to patient care every day,
and the Foundation is thrilled to support them in their work,”
noted Heather Hurst, HRRH Foundation President & CEO.
Proceeds from the Gala will support the Hospital Foundation’s
campaign to raise $225 million dollars to equip the NEW
Humber River Regional Hospital – North America’s first
fully digital hospital. The new hospital will be a place where
patients are empowered to participate in all aspects of
their care. In partnership with their teams of care providers,
patients and families will take advantage of the technologies
available to enhance the personal interactions that are the
basis of great PeopleCare.

What an
AWESOME Day!
Our 29th annual AWESOME Invitational Golf Tournament was
in full swing August 20th, 2012 at the Eagles Nest Golf and
Country Club.
Golfers enjoyed an exclusive golf experience – one that is
hard to find elsewhere in Toronto. After a gourmet breakfast
and warm up on the driving range, golfers set out on their
18-hole adventure. Along the way, foursomes were treated
to personalized service by a fore caddy, as well as delicious
treats like prosciutto sandwiches, gourmet ice cream and
even a porchetta station with all the fixings!
Among the celebrations this year, we took a moment
to honor the late Dr. William Francis, one of the original
founders of our great tournament. We unveiled our new
AWESOME trophy, which is fashioned in the shape of the
famous pink jacket that Dr. Francis founded, and awarded
the first recipient of this prestigious prize – the top golfer for
2012 which is John Ward – congratulations!
By the end of the day, $220,000 was raised in support of
the NEW Humber River Regional Hospital. The day could
not have been possible without the support of our loyal and
enthusiastic donors – you make our work possible and for
that, the entire community is grateful.

CIBC – Support
for What Matters
W e can’t say it enough
Good Luck!
Over the past decade, Humber River Regional Hospital
Foundation and CIBC have shared a special partnership.
After years of working together towards our mutual goal to
improve healthcare for our community, we can confidently
say that we are more than just partners, we are friends.
CIBC is a staunch supporter of our innovative new hospital.
Their energetic fundraising efforts have produced funds and
so much more. Most recently, CIBC has come on board
with our Team Revolution cycling event. Over 60 cyclists
will travel to Italy in the October to raise funds and
awareness by riding in the Granfondo Italia. Four CIBC
employees – Venki Raman, Domenic Reda, Mark Roccatani,
and Christopher Piersanti – will cycle this challenging course
to raise money for the new hospital. We wish them all the
best on their journey through the hills of Modena.
Their infectious energy and enthusiasm will be felt in
Granfondo Italia 2012, but it is also already being felt right here
at home. With participation from over twelve neighbouring
branches, CIBC’s barbeques, bake sales, sponsorships,
in support of Team Revolution have helped generate buzz
and excitement within our community for the new hospital.
CIBC is a true community leader and Humber Regional
Hospital Foundation is grateful for their contribution to
our campaign. Larry Tomei, Senior Vice President, Retail
Distribution CIBC and HRRHF Board Member says, “CIBC is
committed to improving health care for Canadians. At CIBC
we care about what matters – kids, cures and community.
We have enjoyed a partnership with Humber River Regional
Hospital for several years, through employee volunteerism,
and corporate donations to key campaigns. Humber River
Regional Hospital provides quality and leading edge care.
CIBC and our employees are excited for the New Humber
River Regional Hospital, as it will continue to offer the best
care for our community.”
Thank you, Larry, and CIBC. When the doors to our new
hospital open in 2015, you will know that it could not have
been possible without you.
From the entire Humber family – good luck to each and every member
of Team Revolution! All those months of training, sacrifice and
fundraising will pay off in spades once you all cross the finish line in the
Granfondo Italia on October 13, 2012. And in 2015, when we open
the doors to the new Humber River, your efforts will pay off for the
entire community to benefit from for generations to come.
Even though we can’t be there with you on your amazing journey
abroad, please know that every Humber doctor, nurse, patient,
volunteer and board member are there with you in spirit – cheering
you on, feeling your aches and pains and celebrating that glorious
moment when you cross the finish line all in the name of Humber River
Regional Hospital.
Buona Fortuna!
