McGill IBD Fundraiser

The 2023 edition of The McGill IBD Research Group annual fundraiser

An exceptional evening of humour with Sugar Sammy, emceed by Marina Orsini in support of the McGill IBD Research Group!

Organized by the McGill IBD Research Group through the Montreal General Hospital Foundation, this event raises funds for patient care at the IBD clinics in the McGill teaching hospitals – the MUHC IBD Centre at the Montreal General Hospital and the IBD clinics at the Montreal Children’s Hospital and Jewish General Hospital.

Your generous contribution will help alleviate the gaps in care for the IBD community by supporting the hiring and training of dedicated IBD healthcare professionals, as well as ensuring that the McGill IBD Research Group continues to provide free and accessible educational sessions for those affected by IBD.

This year, the McGill IBD Research Group is hoping to invest a total of $380,000 in IBD care to provide vital care to 7,000 adults and children with IBD in Montreal and the surrounding areas. In addition to offering continuous support for IBD nurses, auxiliary & support staff, and psychologists, the group is hoping to raise enough support to hire a new part-time nurse for the Montreal Children’s Hospital! This nurse will significantly impact the IBD clinic and improve the quality of care provided to the IBD pediatric population.

The 2023 Dr. Seidman Award in IBD Excellence will be awarded to Dr. Albert Cohen, Director of Gastroenterology at the Jewish General Hospital.
