Georgian Bay General Hospital Fundraiser

On August 30th, 2024, the Georgian Bay General Hospital (GBGH) Foundation will commence its Power of Giving Fundraiser, introducing a fresh approach for this year’s event.

The 2024 initiative will shift its focus towards an Online Auction and the sale of the renowned Georgian Bay Bags, omitting an in-person event or gala for this year. This decision paves the way for planning a significant event slated for 2025, which will commemorate the launch of a major capital campaign aimed at hospital enhancements.

Jen Russell, the director of communications and engagement at the GBGH Foundation, expressed excitement for the upcoming year, stating, “We are on the brink of some of the most exciting and transformational projects in our hospital’s history. In 2025, we will be launching the largest capital campaign our hospital has ever seen.”

The Online Auction will feature an impressive array of over 80 unique items available for bidding. Items include vacation packages, gift certificates, personal pampering experiences, luxury gifts, and home décor.

Additionally, the Georgian Bay Bags, sponsored by Bourgeois Auto Group, promise an exclusive collection of unique local products with a retail value exceeding $410. Limited to just 100 bags, each priced at $259, the collection aims to emphasize the essence of simple luxury and self-care.

Robyn Blanchet, community giving officer of the GBGH Foundation, highlighted the support from local businesses, stating, “This year’s Power of Giving is truly showcasing our community’s local businesses, both through the online auction and the Georgian Bay Bag. We are overwhelmed by the generous donations we have received, and partnerships that we’ve been able to build through this important fundraiser.”

All proceeds from the Power of Giving Fundraiser will directly contribute to the urgent acquisition of MRI technology at GBGH. Interested individuals can participate in the auction or purchase a Georgian Bay Bag by visiting GIVE2GBGH.ca.
