Alberta Women’s Health Foundation

The Alberta Women’s Health Foundation (AWHF) is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving health outcomes for women through research, education, and clinical care. Launched by the Royal Alexandra Hospital Foundation, the AWHF supports the Women and Children’s Health Research Institute (WCHRI) and other initiatives across Alberta. The foundation focuses on addressing the historical gap in women's health research, covering areas such as reproductive health, menopause, and gynecological cancers. By raising funds and awareness, AWHF aims to foster innovations that lead to more personalized and effective healthcare for women. It serves as a province-wide fundraising brand that supports over 160 researchers at the University of Alberta.
