Lois Hole Hospital for Women

The Lois Hole Hospital for Women (LHHFW) is forging a path toward closing the gap between the disparities in women’s healthcare and research.
As the only dedicated women’s hospital in Alberta – and one of only four in Canada – it offers specialized services for women under one roof, improving accessibility and quality care for all those who walk through its doors. This can include everything from comprehensive, high-risk obstetrical and maternal care to the surgical treatment of ovarian, cervical, and other gynaecological cancers.
The Lois Hole Hospital for Women is home to:
  • The Dale Sheard Centre for Solutions in Women’s Health, facilitating research into women’s health and wellness;
  • A dedicated da Vinci Robot (the only women’s hospital in Canada with one);
  • The Allard Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Clinic, which conducts research and provides care for women with high-risk cancers – a first of its kind in Alberta.

Lois Hole Hospital for Women is part of the Royal Alexandra Hospital, the largest hospital in Alberta by bed capacity and the busiest emergency department in Western Canada which provides care to a patient population spanning one-third of Canada’s land area.

Community and donor support is crucial to the work of LHHFW. The Hospital’s fundraising is conducted as part of the Royal Alexandra Hospital Foundation (RAHF) – the fundraising arm of the Hospital – which provides a way for thousands of individuals and organizations to support the Royal Alexandra Hospital and its number one priority: building better health care for the people of Alberta.

Now, the Foundation is looking for its next star to join the organization as Senior Development Officer (SDO), who will be the primary staff member leading major gift fundraising in support of the Lois Hole Hospital for Women.

Reporting to the Director of Philanthropy, this is a compelling opportunity for an experienced and passionate fundraiser to make transformative impacts in women’s health in Alberta. The SDO will join a high-functioning and professional team in support of righting the inequalities in women’s health.
