The Pembroke Regional Hospital Foundation is excited to announce the 20th Anniversary of the Black & White Gala, on Saturday, October 18th.

 

Thank you to Norm and Mary Jane Carroll, long-time supporters of the Pembroke Regional Hospital for their continued support of local health care, generously donating an incredible $10,000 in honour of the 20th Anniversary of the Gala as a Gift of Humanity sponsor!

 

Mary Jane Carroll says, “The growth and expansion that has happened at the Pembroke Regional Hospital over the last two decades is exceptional. It is hard to believe that we are celebrating the 20th Foundation Gala! It is important for those in the catchment area of the PRH to support the hospital in any way they can. Volunteering, donations, and fundraising events are a few ways to show support.”

 

Black & White Gala event Chair, Dr. Christy Natsis, expressed her sincere appreciation stating, “Without a sense of caring, there is no sense of community. Thank you to Gift of Humanity sponsors Norm and Mary Jane Carroll who chose to support the Pembroke Regional Hospital who care for us, our families and our friends. As Chair of this year’s Black & White Gala, I have been in awe of the support from so many of our local families and businesses who care about having the best possible health care right here close to home.”

 

The Black & White Gala provides an opportunity for ticket purchasers to enjoy a catered meal from Ullrich’s at the beautiful Normandy Officers’ Mess while supporting their Pembroke Regional Hospital! An online auction and online raffle for an amazing vacation will launch on September 29th and will be opened to the public. Watch the PRH Foundation Facebook page for details.

 

Proceeds from the Black & White Gala support the highest priority equipment needs at the Pembroke Regional Hospital, improving the lives of local patients and their families.

 

Foundation Executive Director Roger Martin adds, “On behalf of the Foundation’s Board of Directors, our Gala Committee and of course the team here at the Foundation, we wish to thank Norm and Mary Jane Carroll who have supported the Gala right from the beginning, for last two decades. They are a true pillar of the community!”
