Margaret and late husband Charles Juravinski were known for making considerable donations to health-care providers throughout Hamilton.
A well-known Hamilton philanthropist with a legacy of contributing considerable funding to local health-care institutions has died.
Margaret Juravinski died Tuesday at the age of 91, according to a statement from executives at St. Joseph’s Villa Foundation.
Her death comes just a little over a year after the passing of husband Charles Juravinski.
The Juravinski family is noted for the millions of dollars in endowments to Hamilton-area health facilities and the City of Hamilton over a number of years.
St. Joe’s Villa president and CEO Don Davidson told Global News the Juravinskis’ support dates back some 25 years, with major funding for a major redevelopment at that facility in 2002 via a $5-million gift.
“They could identify a need and their intuition was bang on,” Davidson explained.
“The new health care was something that was universal and something that will touch everyone. And when they set out to focus on that, um, the impact has just been profound through the years.”
