Perley Health Foundation Partner Spotlight
Seniors and Veterans are some of the most vulnerable members of our community. Personalized, compassionate, and empathetic care is not just a medical service – it is an invaluable support for Canadians who have dedicated themselves to our nation throughout their lives.
Perley Health is a unique and innovative community that empowers Seniors and Veterans to live life to the fullest.
More than 600 Seniors call Ottawa’s Perley Health home, receiving the care and support they need in long-term care and independent apartments. One of Ontario’s largest and most progressive long-term care homes, Perley Health, is also a centre for research, education, and clinical innovation.
By providing person-centred clinical, therapeutic, and recreational services to residents, Perley Health transforms the care of Canada’s Veterans and Seniors each and every day.
At Lockheed Martin Canada, we are proud to support the Perley Health Foundation’s mission to transform elder care by contributing to the Foundation’s successful “Answering the Call” campaign. To help cross the Foundation’s $10-million goal, Lockheed Martin Canada answered the call by making the final gift of $60,000, consisting of a yearly $20,000 donation over the next three years.

The injection of support from Lockheed Martin exemplifies their dedication to providing Veteran support and meeting their commitment to being a valued partner to their neighbours.”
The work of ensuring excellence in comfort, safety and services for our Seniors and Veterans is never over. Through this generous campaign, Perley Health Foundation can continue to make crucial strides to improve care in Ottawa and across Canada.
