The Grand Priory of the Knights Hospitaller in Canada is a Christian-based charitable organization.

Members of our order raise funds, which are directed to charity through our Foundation.  The Knights Hospitaller Foundation is a registered charity (#118984509RR0001), governed by the Canada Revenue Agency.

We are members of the international Hospitaller Order of St. John of Jerusalem (HOSJ) with local chapters (Commanderies) in the Hamilton, London, Montreal, and Ottawa areas.

Our Order:

  • Encourages good Christian work and welcomes members who want to work to bring relief to the underprivileged.

  • Supports people in need by providing financial assistance to food banks, child and youth services, homeless shelters, and hospice care. We also support victims of natural disasters in Canada and abroad.
