March of Dimes Canada is a national nonprofit organization focused on helping children and adults with physical disabilities live more independent lives. It is based in East York, Ontario. The organization's roots go back to 1949, when a nationwide polio fundraising effort led to the creation of the Ontario March of Dimes, and it adopted its current name in 2006, as its scope broadened beyond polio rehabilitation to address the broader needs of people with disabilities. Today, the organization serves people with disabilities across Canada by offering programs and services that support independence and daily functioning. In 2023, it expanded its scope with the launch of the After Stroke Program in Newfoundland and Labrador.
