Roots Tree
The addition of a baby to a family is a blessing and a joy. The Health Care Foundation is pleased to present you with an opportunity to celebrate this new addition through our Roots Tree.
Purchasing a leaf on the Roots Tree is a way for you and your growing family to honour this new life and, at the same time, support the needs of Women’s Health.
With a donation of $40, the Health Care Foundation will place a leaf, engraved with your baby’s name and date of birth, on the Roots Tree located on the main floor of the Health Sciences Centre. This leaf will remain on the Tree for up to five years, and the Health Care Foundation will send you a second engraved leaf as a keepsake for years to come.
A Roots Tree leaf also makes a great gift for new parents from family and friends.To have a leaf placed on the Roots Tree, please complete the donation form and submit with your payment securely online or print the form and return to the Health Care Foundation. Congratulations and thank you for supporting the Roots Tree!
The Health Care Foundation acknowledges the support of NTV, the Chester Dawe Family and the ongoing assistance of The Trophy Factory and Jenkins & Puddicombe Sheet Metal Limited. Because of their kind contributions, we are better able to support the Women’s Health Program through the Roots Tree project.

"As a woman and a mother, I believe the most important and integral right of all residents of Newfoundland and Labrador is access to quality health care. Having been a patient and receiving quality care from the staff and physicians of Eastern Health, I am honored to support the Health Care Foundation’s fundraising initiative for Women’s Health. I will cherish the leaves that were placed on this tree to recognize the birth of my two children, Ethan and Jorja Belle, and I encourage you to purchase a leaf in honor of these significant milestones in your lives. Thank you so much for your support!”
Sharon Snow, Honorary Patron
