Our Twenty-First Starlight Gala - A Night at the Grammys 

We couldn't be more pleased to announce that our Twenty-First Starlight Gala - A Night at the Grammys - raised over $230,000, enabling us to purchase the new Ultrasound Machine for Diagnostic Imaging!!  Our generous community has once again exceeded our expectations, and we couldn't be more grateful for all the support.  Thank you!

The profit from each Gala is directed to the highest priority needs of the hospital.  Our Gala fundraising efforts are focused on ensuring that our medical professionals receive the vitally needed equipment.  Without the fundraising efforts of the Foundation and the support of our communities, we would be unable to ensure that our hospital has the best equipment possible to care for our patients.  Our Foundation is committed to supporting our hospital in its quest for excellence in rural health care and providing "Quality Care Close To Home". 

Watch this space for news about our 22nd Annual Gala, happening on May 24th, 2025 at the Palmerston & District Community Centre. 

CKNX Health Care Heroes Radiothon 2023

Held on the third Saturday in October, the Health Care Heroes Radiothon raises funds for local area hospitals. 

During Radiothon, tune in to the broadcast all day on AM920 and cknx.ca, or catch updates on the hour on 101.7 The One and Cool 94.5.  Listeners will hear heartwarming patient stories and descriptions of equipment needed at each participating hospital.  

For 2023, the goal was to raise $175,000 towards our $8 million goal for our MRI Campaign, and we met our goal!  Thank you to everyone who donated to Radiothon 2023! Last year we raised over $167,000 which enabled us to purchase two colonoscopes and one gastroscope for Surgical Services.  We cannot thank our community enough for the generosity shown to this campaign and our hospital.  It's through your support that we can purchase this needed equipment.
