KGH Day of Giving shatters record

The KGH Day of Giving has set a new record, raising more than $2.5 million for Emergency Care at Kelowna General Hospital.

The one-day campaign blew past its $2 million goal thanks to thousands of donations and strong community support.

Funds will help upgrade equipment and improve patient flow in the hospital’s busy Emergency Department.

KGH Foundation CEO Allison Young said in a media release, “This belongs to every person who gave, shared, volunteered, and helped spread the word.”
