Volunteers

“The Kelowna General Hospital Foundation is essential for helping clinicians to deliver the best care for patients. Strong collaborations between clinicians, hospital administrators, patients, and community leaders are important to ensure that people who need the most complex medical care can stay local in Kelowna.”

"Supporting people and innovation leads to results. We have seen major advances in the scope and quality of neurological care at our site by attracting and supporting people who build & innovate. Support from the community allows us to go beyond what we need today and drive care further.”

“Linking the passion and desires of donors to the needs/opportunities of the health system and KGH is such a privilege. I am inspired most by the people; our team, donors, clinicians & caregivers, and administrators and ultimately, the transformative changes to our system of care that become possible when we work together. I am grateful to be able to feel such purpose in my work.”

“In Canada, I think we take our health care for granted. We don’t have a clue what anything costs. But every appointment and procedure has a price tag. We have always contributed to the hospital in a small way. However, after my emergency heart surgery and hospital stay, it seemed even more important. We want to contribute to the ongoing excellence of treatment and care at KGH.”
