An application was received from the
Burnaby Hospital Foundation requesting a grant in support of their annual
gala to be held on 2019 November 15 at the Delta Hotels Burnaby Conference
Centre. The event’s theme is Nashville Nights, country music pilgrimage, and it
includes a cocktail reception, multi-course meal, live entertainment,
dancing, live and silent auctions, raffle, and guests’ donations. The gala
raises awareness and funds in support of the Hospital (i.e. medical
equipment, patient care, and innovative and educational programs). The event
will be attended by over 300 guests, including sponsors, physicians, corporate
leaders, elected officials, and benefactors and hospital patrons. The majority
of the guests reside in Burnaby; while the majority of the sponsors have
business in the community. The Hospital serves over 200,000 patients per
year.
