Diwali, the Festival of Lights & Joy, is celebrated by millions all around the world. Culturally and spiritually rooted within the South Asian community, its signifies the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, knowledge of ignorance, and hope over despair.

This year’s event will directly benefit the expansion of the surgical unit, putting essential equipment in the hands of OTMH caregivers.

More equipment, more surgeons, and a new operating room are the reasons why the Oakville Hospital Foundation has launched a $3 million campaign to expand and enhance Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital’s surgical department.

It is the Foundation’s largest campaign since the Hospital opened in 2015.  The campaign will fund 77 pieces of surgical equipment and outfit a tenth operating room set to open this year.
