Our Foundation

Registered in 2000 as a Charity under the Charities Act of Barbados

Formally known as the Cato Burton Foundation


The Cato Burton Foundation was established with the main objectives of assisting in the promotion of efficiency and productivity of human resources at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH) of Barbados. The QEH performs the triple task of being a community hospital, a teaching hospital and a regional hospital.

Help is also given to St. Vincent and the Grenadines [the birthplace of Sir Arnott Cato] to allow health personnel to enhance their professional development.

The Fund is managed by Trustees who welcome your support and give you the assurance that the funds will be properly managed and audited annually. Your contribution will be publicly acknowledged should you so desire.
