This season of giving, give the gift of world-class health care to those in the Southern Interior.

Because you give
Miracles are possible Lives are saved KGH is advancing Problems are solved

At Kelowna General Hospital and in our community health programs, we have seen countless transformations that feel like miracles. From life-saving treatments that keep patients close to home, to cutting -edge technologies that improve outcomes, to preventative health programs that keep individuals out of the hospital, and breakthroughs in medical research that inspire hope for the future— these gifts of health and hope were only possible because of you. 

Even if your contributions won’t directly benefit you, they will touch the lives of someone you know. That’s the true spirit of the giving season—knowing your generosity will help someone you may never meet. 

By supporting the KGH Foundation you’ve enhanced world-class healthcare in our community, helping countless individuals that may include your neighbour, niece, coworker, or perhaps even yourself. With your support we can bring more hope, healing, and prevention to those who need it most. 

This holiday season, we invite you to join us as we transform health care in the BC Interior. Any gift, no matter the size, will help make a world of difference, because giving changes everything. 

Thank you for considering a donation to the KGH Foundation. With your help, we can make even more miracles possible for thousands of community members, their families, and maybe even our own.
