HAMILTON HEALTH SCIENCES FOUNDATION



A MATCH MADE IN THE COMMUNITY

Hamilton Health Sciences Foundation (HHSF) is a community-based organization dedicated to supporting world-class health care for patients and families across Hamilton and surrounding regions. Through fundraising, awareness, and collaboration, HHSF ensures access to advanced medical research, equipment, and compassionate care for those who need it most.

IN PARTNERSHIP WITH HHSF

At Baffin, we believe strength is built when communities come together — not only to endure challenges, but to overcome them. Born and based in Stoney Creek, Ontario, we’re proud to support a foundation that serves the same community we call home.

Through our partnership with the Hamilton Health Sciences Foundation, Baffin helps fund programs and initiatives that enhance patient care, empower healthcare workers, and advance the future of medicine in our region. This partnership is rooted in shared values of resilience, compassion, and commitment to those who support us every day.

THE HAMMER PLUNGE – PRESENTED BY BAFFIN

Each winter, Baffin partners with HHSF to host The Hammer Plunge – Presented by Baffin, a unique event that challenges participants to take an icy plunge in support of local health care.

The Hammer Plunge captures the essence of both organizations — courage, care, and community.
From the frozen lakes where we test our boots to the frozen waters of the plunge, the event reminds us that resilience takes many forms.

Funds raised through The Hammer Plunge directly support HHSF’s mission to provide advanced equipment, research, and patient-focused programs across Hamilton’s hospitals.
