Dave and Rani Mann of Isle of Mann Construction, Ltd. and the Mannkind Charitable Society are a tremendous example of how to harness the power of philanthropy. They gave a $1 million matching gift to the new ER and invited the entire community to take them up on their offer to match every single donation, dollar-for-dollar. More than $1 million was raised to match their incredible generosity in just three short months.
CIBC Wood Gundy - the Yarmoshuk Financial Group is a strong supporter of Peace Arch Hospital, having generously taken on the title sponsorship of the Peace Arch Hospital Gala since 2014. Neil and Lisa Yarmoshuk are passionate about their community and about giving back to their hospital. We can't thank them enough for their philanthropy and ardent spirit of giving.
The Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary Society has a long history of volunteering their time and resources to raise funds for medical equipment and patient comforts at Peace Arch Hospital. To date, this passionate group of women (and a few good men!) have donated more than $12 million, with their latest gift - their largest ever - of $1.5 million to the new ER.
The caring fire departments of both Surrey and White Rock collaborated on a monumental gift to Peace Arch Hospital, donating $500,000 to the new ER's Mental Health & Substance Abuse Zone. This precedent-setting joint donation is a testament to their commitment to improving health care services in a hospital that serves both of their communities. We are so grateful for our first responders!
