About St. Boniface Hospital
St. Boniface Hospital, a work of charity of the Sisters of Charity of Montreal “Grey Nuns”, is a Catholic tertiary health care facility affiliated with the University of Manitoba.
Marguerite d’Youville, founder of the Grey Nuns, dedicated her life to the poor, revealing the compassionate love of God and trust in Divine Providence.
