Two weeks ago, our community showed up and SHATTERED our previous KGH Day of Giving record, raising over $2.5 million to advance Emergency Care right here at Kelowna General Hospital. We hope you enjoy some of the highlights as much as we did!

Thank you for proving that giving truly does change everything.

There's record-breaking, and then there's record-SHATTERING! To mark a decade of Day of Giving, the community came together to more than double our previous best Day of Giving.

Together, we raised $2,533,955.17 to help advance Emergency Care right here at Kelowna General Hospital! That is jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring, and almost unbelievable. To all of our donors, volunteers, corporate and community partners, media partners, staff, the Emergency team at KGH, and everyone else who contributed - our heartfelt gratitude for making the 10th annual Day of Giving truly unforgettable.

Of course, we would be remiss if we didn't give a special shoutout to Dr. Neil Long, who committed to shaving his head if we surpassed $1.5 million, and it's safe to say that blew that number out of the water! To see if he made good on his promise, and for more on the history and impact of Day of Giving, check out the full story: https://www.kghfoundation.com/historic-day-of-giving-raises-over-2-million/

As Mental Health Week comes to a close, we’re taking a moment to recognize the incredible work happening across our community, made possible thanks to your generous support. ⁠
⁠
From music therapy in the McNair Unit at KGH, to Thrive Okanagan’s work bringing organizations together to strengthen community well-being, to the IHOT Mobile Clinic Van providing dignified care for vulnerable residents, your support is helping make mental health care more accessible and compassionate.⁠
⁠
We’ve also seen our community come together through events like Parade with a Purpose and Rock the Foundation, helping expand Foundry services into West Kelowna, while conversations on our (w)healthy podcast have continued to highlight the importance of mental health and well-being. Long-term impact is also being created through the Payton & Dillon Budd Brain Health Medical Fund, an endowment supporting advancements in brain health for generations to come.⁠
⁠
Thank you to everyone who continues to show up for mental health in our region.

At last week’s Teddy Bear Clinic, local kindergarten students stepped into the world of health care, helping their stuffies through check-ups, scans, and bandages along the way!
 
Thank you to the incredible support of Kirmac Cares for Kids for making this initiative possible!
