Hearts of Gold Gala
Changing the face of childhood cancer!
*General admission to the Lobby & Rotary Hall at 6pm. Presentations and live auction in the HUB International Theatre at 8:30pm.
The first annual Hearts of Gold gala fundraiser for childhood cancer research, hosted by Trevor McDonald, will be a fun and informative night while raising much needed funds for groundbreaking childhood cancer research. Cancer is the #1 cause of death in children, more than all other diseases combined! Yet only 5% of all cancer funding is directed to childhood cancers. This needs to change and you can help!
Come test your luck in the mini casino with our money, prizes for the top players! Plenty to eat and drink with hors d’oeuvres served by top chef Tammy Wood and pastries from BeNanna Bakery. Enjoy a drink from the bar while listening to live music by Andrew Christopher, magic performed by Damien Carriere (Mobile Magic) and take part in the silent auction. The fun continues in the HUB theatre with your chance to bid in a live auction. Who wouldn’t want a 5 star meal prepared in your home by Tammy Wood with your own private concert by Trevor McDonald, or a helicopter ride in the beautiful Fraser Valley!
Proceeds from this event will go to further ground-breaking childhood cancer research being done by the Michael Cuccione Foundation at BC Children’s Hospital, Dr. Charles Keller at CC-TDI and Dr. Noah Federman at UCLA. Part proceeds will also go to support the amazing work at Canuck Place Children’s Hospice.
