Supporting the Heart of Health Care in the South Okanagan Similkameen
We’re dedicated to enhancing healthcare across the South Okanagan Similkameen by raising vital funds for medical equipment, patient care, and facility upgrades.
Together, we support the South Okanagan Similkameen communities by ensuring access to top-quality care close to home.
Our mission is simple: to improve healthcare for everyone in our region. From state-of-the-art equipment to upgraded oncology units, every dollar raised directly impacts the lives of patients and their families.
What we do to improve healthcare in our community:
- Fundraising for Critical Medical Needs: We partner with individuals, businesses, and community groups to raise funds for essential healthcare improvements.
- Transforming Facilities: We support infrastructure upgrades, from hospital expansions to specialized care units.
- Empowering Our Community: Through events, campaigns, and donor recognition, we bring people together to make a lasting difference.
We are just $1 million away from finishing this vital project.
Every dollar you donate brings us closer to providing a state-of-the-art Oncology Unit, enhanced support services, and a welcoming environment for patients and their families.
