INSPIRED GIVING Volunteers led by Royal Columbian Hospital anesthesiologist Dr. Feisal Mohamedali have wrapped up a record-breaking year for the annual Making the Cut Charity Golf Classic. The fundraiser, with title sponsor West Care Medical, raised more than $32,000 to purchase medical equipment. Ladner’s Van Marrewyk family and their friends have purchased a life-saving piece of equipment for premature babies and other fragile newborns at Royal Columbian Hospital, five years after their triplet girls received care in the hospital’s Variety Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. They raised $55,000 during the Scotiabank Charity Challenge in June to buy a jet ventilator.
Jeannette and Stan Hrescak tour Royal Columbian Hospital’s cardiac catheterization lab in May following the couple’s purchase of $75,000 worth of equipment for the hospital.
In April, family and friends of the late Gary Smith gathered once again at Minnekhada Regional Park in Coquitlam to remember his life and help combat esophageal cancer by raising close to $12,000. For the latest Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation news, follow us:
