Toronto firefighters give important gift to Sunnybrook

Members of the Toronto Professional Fire Fighters' Association visited Sunnybrook on December 20, 2011 to give an important and much-needed holiday gift to Sunnybrook's Ross Tilley Burn Centre.

One of the Ross Tilley Burn Centre's most generous supporters, the Toronto Professional Fire Fighters' Association have donated over $600,000 to Sunnybrook over the past several years.

This year, they asked Santa to visit Sunnybrook early — and to bring valuable surgical equipment with him, including surgical knives and a Versajet. This will give Sunnybrook's burn experts the best tools possible to treat their patients when it matters most.

"This generous gift means we can continue to provide the province's most critically ill burn patients with the best and most advanced care," said Dr. Marc Jeschke, the Ross Tilley Burn Centre's medical director.
