Founded in 1973, Mount Sinai Hospital Foundation Montreal (MSHFM) fundraises for Montreal’s Mount Sinai Hospital with the goal of supporting excellence in pulmonary and palliative care. The hospital has 107 beds and specializes in respiratory care, long-term care and palliative care. It is a clinical research leader in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and sleep apnea. The hospital’s sleep apnea clinic is technologically advanced, helping patients who experience chronic diseases sleep better and, ultimately, live better. Treating sleep apnea reduces long-term risks of heart attacks and strokes. The hospital is currently participating in 24 research projects on pulmonary rehabilitation, sleep apnea and palliative care.

MSHFM has 2 major donor events, Car Rally and Six and the City. These events brought in $297k in F2015, $451k in F2014, and $541k in F2013.

Mount Sinai Hospital Foundation Montreal is a small-cap charity hospital foundation with total donations and special events fundraising of $771k in F2015. Administrative costs were 31% of revenues. Fundraising costs were 17% of donations. For every $1 donated to the charity, 51 cents go towards MSHFM’s grants to the hospital, falling outside of Ci’s reasonable range.

This results in a program cost coverage ratio, excluding donor-endowed funds, of 552%, meaning that the charity can cover over 5.5 years of program costs with its current reserves. MSHFM has committed to grant $403k in F2016.
