Each year, Delta Hospital and Community Health Foundation (DHCHF) holds their Moonlight Gala to help raise funds for much needed equipment and facilities for Delta Hospital. With the support of their generous community, the event has raised $4.8 million the past 23 years.
DHCHF had planned to hold an in-person Moonlight Gala safely over two days this February at Tsawwassen Springs, however, in light of the ongoing pandemic and continued public health orders, the Foundation’s Moonlight Gala has been postponed to Nov. 5.
Despite not being able to meet in-person, the need for new equipment at Delta Hospital remains. To ensure our community continues to have access to the very best healthcare possible, DHCHF will be holding an online Moonlight Gala 2.0 event from Feb. 24 to 27.
The DHCHF is inviting the entire community to participate in this event, which will include an online auction, raffle and an opportunity to make a charitable donation.
The current priority is to raise money to support the Delta Hospital Cancer Care Fund. This important Fund helps the Foundation to purchase critical cancer screening equipment. This includes a new Fixed X-Ray Detector, endoscopic cameras, and other immediate cancer related needs.
“As you can imagine, we are incredibly disappointed that we have to postpone our in-person event,” says Lisa Hoglund, Executive Director of the DHCHF. “We are grateful for the continued and generous support of our sponsors and donors. However, we once again need to change our plans and we hope that we can count on you all to join us for our online event this February.”
