Crystal Gala Accomplishments

In learning the news that Abbotsford was going to receive our very own cancer centre, the Crystal Gala Committee was pleased that our dollars raised would notably be making a difference to women in our community who are faced with fighting this disease. The Abbotsford Regional Hospital and Cancer Centre is a world-class medical facility serving residents of Abbotsford as well as other communities in the eastern Fraser Valley.

In 2007, the Crystal Gala Foundation pledged a lead gift of $500,000 to A Campaign for Health Care Excellence to ensure that hospital patients receive the best possible treatment and care. With the generous support of our sponsors, donors and guests, the Foundation fulfilled its pledge and has now doubled its commitment for a total pledge of $1 Million.

The funds raised support the Crystal Gala Breast Health Unit in the hospital, where digital mammography and enhanced programs and resources ultimately provide shortened exam and diagnosis time frames leading to improved patient care.
