Plan Your Event

Make a difference your own way.

Make a difference your own way! Each year we see people and businesses take matters into their own hands and organize events where incredibly generous donations and proceeds are shared with the Vernon Jubilee Hospital Foundation. This type of selfless ownership in our community continually inspires us.

These community-hosted events are an important part of the fundraising process because they demonstrate the North Okanagan’s continuous passion for excellent care. The next time you’re planning a party, we encourage you to consider if it’s an opportunity to help support the advancement of healthcare in our community.

If you’re planning an event with the intention of raising funds for VJHF, please let us know! We would love to help you promote it.

Host a fundraising event of any shape or size.

Whether it’s a kids birthday party, a BBQ, a community walk/run or something entirely unique, you have the opportunity to give back to healthcare in our community. When you choose to host your own event you have the freedom to organize something that is special to you—reflecting what makes you passionate about supporting healthcare areas that mean the most to you.


The Gift of Excellence: Move4Mom

In 2021, Vernon local Oliver Stankiewicz organized a Mother’s Day run to honour his mom who had recently passed away. This virtual fundraiser was created to support the Vernon Jubilee Hospital’s McMurtry-Baerg Cancer Centre where his mother had been treated as part of her care. It wasn’t long before he had the immense support of the community behind him, raising more than $30,000 for the centre.

This is just one example of someone in our community wanting to stand up and make a difference. You have the power to be another success story.
