About The Brenda Strafford Foundation

The Brenda Strafford Foundation is a registered Canadian charity established in 1975 by Dr. Barrie I. Strafford in memory of his late wife, Brenda. The organization was founded out of compassion, under the guiding principle to cater to humanity, creating a legacy in Brenda’s name that would perpetuate her desire to give back to the community in a meaningful way.

From innovation in seniors care, to championing research and education, to providing housing and support for women and families fleeing domestic abuse and families at risk of homelessness, to healthcare in the Caribbean, The Brenda Strafford Foundation has a proud history of serving seniors and those in need since 1975.
