StayWell is a Canadian charity helping patients and families access safe, affordable places to stay during medical treatment—so they can focus on healing, not housing.
For many patients and families, accessing specialized medical care means traveling far from home. Between transportation, time away from work, and the emotional weight of treatment, the added cost of temporary housing can quickly become overwhelming.
Too often, families are left navigating unfamiliar cities, limited options, and high accommodation costs—at a time when stability and support matter most.
Medical care shouldn’t come with housing stress
THE PROBLEM
Making a meaningful difference
6,000+ FAMILIES SUPPORTED
Our numbers says it all. Since 2018, StayWell has provided over 94,000 room nights to more than 6,000 patients, their families, and caregivers.
$7.3M+ SAVED FOR FAMILIES
StayWell has helped families save over $7.3M in accommodation costs—including $2.7M in 2025 alone—averaging about $1,000 per family.
IN 2 MAJOR CANADIAN CITIES
StayWell currently supports patients in Toronto and Winnipeg, with more cities coming soon—so help is there when and where it’s needed.
#1 IN HEALTH CARE SUPPORT
StayWell is honoured to be recognized by The Veritas Foundation as Canada’s fastest-growing charity in health care support.

KLAIRA
"The last half year has brought a new level of exhaustion I didn’t know existed—I haven't had the time between hospital admissions to work up the energy to host more fundraisers. We are so grateful to StayWell for offering us this apartment and the opportunity to make our stay easier."
— Klaira's Family, Toronto Children's Hospital
BRIANNE
"The accommodation StayWell provided us was wonderful. To have a place and feel like you can make it a home is so vital when in this situation. I can’t thank StayWell enough for helping get the condo subsidized for us as the cost of living in Toronto is astronomical."
— Brianne's Family, Toronto General Hospital
MANINDERJIT
"I would like to thank StayWell who is doing great work, and will recommend them to every patient who needs an accommodation near their hospital but can't afford high prices."
— Maninderjit's Family, UHN
