Mount Sinai Hospital owes its existence to a small group of Jewish women, the Ezras Noshen, who went door-to-door soliciting for donations, determined to raise enough money to open a hospital where everyone was welcome. Their inextinguishable spirit built an institution that continues to break barriers and defy the odds every day.

Fuelled by this invaluable support, Mount Sinai has grown from its humble origins as the Toronto Hebrew Maternity and Convalescent Home, into a leader in Canadian health care and a world-renowned centre for breakthrough medical science and research.

As part of the Mount Sinai 100 Chairs campaign, we have established one especially unique position: the Founders Chair in Clinical Excellence. The Founders Chair will advance the leadership of nursing and allied health professions.

…during the course of its busy life, Mount Sinai would have fallen by the wayside time and again had it not been for the unflagging enthusiasm and devotion of its women supporters… no volunteer working at Mount Sinai today as a member of an organized group, can conceive of the tasks performed by these women.
