The David Hearn Foundation

Founded in 2015, The David Hearn Foundation’s central focus is to support the Alzheimer Society of Canada in reducing the personal and social impacts of the disease by raising funds to provide individuals and families with needed programs and services. Through its partnership, the Foundation will aim to increase awareness, improve care for those in need and enhance the quality of life for those affected by the disease, while also empowering Canadians to take action and create positive change.

The Foundation is an extension of Hearn’s existing charitable efforts with the Alzheimer Society through the annual David Hearn Charity Golf Classic, which has provided charitable contributions to the Alzheimer Society Foundation Brant Haldimand Norfolk Hamilton Halton since 2012.

The Foundation’s past initiatives go beyond the tournament, with The David Hearn Foundation Wines in partnership with Rockway Vineyards and The David Hearn Foundation Hats in partnership with Levelwear and Extendicare.

The Alzheimer Society

Since 1978, the Alzheimer Society has been the leading nationwide not-for-profit health organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for Canadians affected by Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, and to advance the search for the cause and cure.

The role of the Alzheimer Society is to offer support, information and education to people with dementia, their families and their caregivers, to increase public awareness of dementia, to promote research, and to advocate for services that respect the dignity of the individual.

Behind every person with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, there are hundreds of people dedicated to helping. Active in communities right across Canada, the Society has programs and services near everyone.
