Carlo and Angela Baldassarra: Building Homes and Health for Generations
For over 60 years, Carlo and Angela Baldassarra have built more than just homes—they’ve created communities where families can thrive. Through their visionary leadership at Greenpark Group, the Baldassarra name has become synonymous with neighbourhoods, family values, and the promise of a brighter future. But their legacy reaches far beyond bricks and mortar—it is one of extraordinary generosity and a deep commitment to the well-being of others.
At the heart of their philanthropy lies the Carangel Corporation, named in honour of Carlo and his beloved wife, Angela. Through this corporation, the Baldassarras have made it their mission to give back to the community that has been a central part of their lives. In a profound act of generosity, Carlo, along with his family and Greenpark Group, have made an extraordinary $12 million donation to William Osler Health System Foundation (Osler Foundation)—the largest philanthropic gift in the company’s history.
This remarkable contribution is a transformative moment for health care in Brampton, reflecting the Baldassarra family’s deep commitment to the city they helped build. Carlo’s unwavering belief in the power of community and the importance of accessible health care is the driving force behind this gift. “At some point in our lives, each of us will need the care of a hospital,” Carlo often says—a statement that resonates deeply with his family’s legacy.
The Baldassarra family’s donation will help bring to life the next phase of Peel Memorial’s redevelopment, which includes a second 24/7 Emergency Department and a significant expansion of inpatient services. The new hospital will become a beacon of world-class care for generations to come, ensuring that families in Brampton can access enhanced health services right in their own community.
Carlo and Angela have always believed in building for the future. Today, their generosity helps build something even more lasting—a legacy of health, compassion, and community care that will impact countless lives. Their vision, deeply rooted in their love for Brampton, ensures that future generations will receive the care they need, close to home.
In recognizing their incredible contribution, we celebrate not only a family that has given so much but also the enduring values they embody—kindness, community, and the belief that together, we can build a brighter future for health care.
“The most important place in any community is the hospital, because without health, nothing else matters. Everyone needs the hospital at some point in their life, and I am so proud and happy that we are able to support health care for Brampton and the surrounding areas with this gift.”
