One of the largest comprehensive cancer centres in North America is coming to life in Calgary this very second. Concrete walls rising to the big prairie sky will shelter 1.3 million square feet of world-leading cancer care, research and education.

The Alberta Cancer Foundation, the University of Calgary, and Alberta Health Services are partnering together with one mission — to raise $250 million in support of improved cancer research, treatment and care at the new Calgary Cancer Centre when it opens its doors in 2024.

We’re asking all Albertans to join us in this once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform cancer care and treatment.

We acknowledge that the city of Calgary and the new Calgary Cancer Centre exist on the traditional and ancestral territory of the Niitsitapi. We are grateful to live, work and play on these lands where the Blackfoot, Tsuut’ina, Stoney Nakoda and the Métis peoples have lived and cared for these lands for generations, and we acknowledge the gifts provided by Elders and Knowledge Keepers. We recognize the First Nations, Métis Nation of Alberta Region 3 and the many urban First Nations, Métis and Inuit whose cancer care may be entrusted to those of us working in the current and new Calgary Cancer Centre. We make this acknowledgement an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory on which we live.
