Because you give
Miracles are possible
Lives are saved
KGH is advancing
Problems are solved
As the season of gratitude approaches, the KGH Foundation warmly invites you to participate in a global movement of generosity: GivingTuesday.
On this day, we reflect on the countless ways in which your support has enabled us to elevate health care, right here in the heart of British Columbia. It’s a celebration of the power of giving, a reminder that in the act of uniting for a common cause, we can transform lives and communities.
Your contributions on GivingTuesday will continue to be the cornerstone of progress at Kelowna General Hospital and its associated care facilities. Your generosity ensures that world-class health care is not just a hope, but a reality, for up to 1 million people across the interior of British Columbia.
Giving changes everything. Let’s prove it once again.
