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

 

Thank you to Marion and Willie Ullrich, long-time supporters of the Pembroke Regional Hospital for their continued support of local healthcare, generously donating an incredible $10,000 in honour of the 20th Anniversary of the Gala as a Gift of Humanity sponsor!

 

Marion Ullrich says, “We have had the privilege to be a part of the Black & White Gala over the past 20 years! It is so meaningful for Ullrich’s to play a role in contributing to the Pembroke Regional Hospital Foundation. On behalf of Willie, myself and our entire family and team, we feel truly blessed to be able to give back to our community.”

 

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 sponsor, Marion and Willie Ullrich, 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 healthcare right here close to home.”

 

The Black & White Gala is 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 launched September 29th and is now open to the public.

 

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 Marion and Willie Ullrich who have supported the Gala for two decades. They are a true pillar of the community, and an amazing team to partner with!
