Since our
incorporation in August 1991, the Hotel Dieu Hospital Foundation has
sponsored many events and fundraisers to benefit the patients of our
Hospital who come from all over Victoria County, from as far north
as St. Leonard and as far south as Bath.

-
Some fundraisers
have been large-scale such as the popular, multi-year daytime
relay, the W.H.I.P. (With Help It’s Possible) Relay, the “Because
We Care” Cancer Campaign, the Digital Ultra Sound Project,
the 1995-1997 New Wing Expansion Project (Surgical Suite,
X-Ray, Lab, ER, Medical / Concentrated Care Unit, Foyer- Front
Entrance), the “Light A Memory” ceremony (purchasing
bulbs for the hospital’s outdoor Christmas trees in memory of
loved ones) and the new Laparoscopic Surgical Equipment
Project.
-
Other fundraisers have been on a smaller scale
such as golf tournaments, selling tickets on Mother’s Day baskets
or donated quilts and 4 F’s- Friends, Food, Funds for the
Foundation (inviting friends over for a meal and donating the
voluntary proceeds to the Foundation).
-
We welcome new ideas to raise funds. You can
also plan a fundraiser of your own and donate the proceeds to the
Foundation. If you would like to help, just
