2026 STONEGATE COMMUNITY HEALTH CHAMPION AWARDS

Stonegate Community Health Centre is a charitable organization that provides health care services, health promotion programs, and community support services in the Stonegate Queensway neighbourhood in South Etobicoke. Our mission is to work “with the community to improve its well-being.” Stonegate prioritizes services and programs to isolated seniors, people living in poverty, immigrants and refugees, women, and those with barriers to accessing health care services.

As we prepare for our Annual General Meeting, we are excited to continue recognizing Health Champions - individuals, groups, Stonegate CHC staff and organizations that have made a meaningful impact in our local community. We invite you to submit nominations for those who have gone above and beyond in contributing to the health, wellbeing, and vitality of our community.

We will be announcing award winners at the Stonegate’s Annual General Meeting in September 2026. More information to follow (www.stonegatechc.org).
