For generations, the Buchanan family has believed in giving back to the communities that have given their family so much. That commitment is now helping support the vision of Maskwa Medical Center.
Maskwa Medical Center is proud to recognize the Buchanan Family Foundation as a Distinguished-level donor and to celebrate the family’s extraordinary generosity in support of Maskwa Medical Center. As one of Maskwa’s leading donors, the Buchanan Family Foundation is making a significant investment in the future of health care in northern Alberta by helping advance a vision that will bring quality care closer to home for individuals and families throughout the region.
For the Buchanan family, this commitment is rooted in a longstanding belief in giving back to the communities that have shaped their lives.
“Northern Alberta is home to our family, and we have seen firsthand the strength, generosity, and resilience of the people who live here.”
The Buchanan Family Foundation was established out of the family’s deep gratitude for the communities and region they call home. Through the Foundation, the family supports initiatives that bring people together, strengthen communities, and create lasting benefits for individuals and families.
“We believe the most meaningful investments are those that continue to make a difference well into the future.”
Supporting Health Care Close to Home
The Buchanan family’s support of Maskwa is particularly meaningful because of the impact improved access to health care can have on families throughout northern and rural Alberta.
“Access to quality health care is something every family should be able to count on. Yet for many people living in northern and rural Alberta, receiving care can mean travelling long distances away from home, family, and the support systems that matter most. That reality is deeply meaningful to us. We understand how important it is for families in our region to have access to the care they need close to home.”
That understanding of the importance of local health care helped shape the family’s decision to support Maskwa.
“When we learned more about the vision for Maskwa Medical Center and the difference it could make throughout northern Alberta, we knew it was a project our family wanted to support. Maskwa represents more than a new medical facility. It represents hope, opportunity, and a stronger future for health care in the region.”
For the Buchanan family, that future means helping families access essential services closer to where they live and reducing the amount of time spent travelling for care.
“Most importantly, it means investing in the health and well-being of the people and communities that make northern Alberta such a special place to live. Our family is incredibly proud to support Maskwa Medical Center and to play a small part in an initiative that will have a lasting impact on individuals and families throughout the region. We are grateful for the opportunity to help build something that will serve northern Alberta for generations to come.”
A Legacy for Generations to Come
The Buchanan family’s support of Maskwa reflects a broader belief in the responsibility to give back in ways that create meaningful and lasting change.
“We have always believed that when you are fortunate enough to be in a position to give back, you have a responsibility to do so in a way that creates a meaningful and lasting difference.
Northern Alberta has given our family so much, and supporting the communities around us has always been important to our family. Maskwa Medical Center is a powerful example of what can happen when people come together with a shared vision for a stronger future.
Supporting Maskwa is especially meaningful to us because of the difference it will make for families throughout the region—not only today, but for generations to come. We are proud to support Maskwa’s vision and the important work being done to bring quality health care closer to home.”
