We are delighted to share that we have been the recipient of many heartfelt gifts from CAGP Foundation Board Chair Jill Nelson’s colleagues and friends to mark her recent retirement from the Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation. This wonderful tribute will support an educational bursary.


Our thanks go out to everybody who made a donation to celebrate Jill’s many years of commitment and her generosity of knowledge. She has been an inspiration and a mentor to many. If you’d like to add to this tribute please click on this link.
