The Chilliwack Hospital Foundation and the Fraser Valley Healthcare Foundation are proud to partner in bringing two vital pieces of medical equipment to Chilliwack General Hospital: the Sinus Navigation System and the Breast Seed Probe.

The Sinus Navigation System valued at $98,000, acts like a GPS for our surgeons, guiding every movement for safer procedures, faster recovery, and easier breathing for our patients.

The Breast Seed Probe, generously funded by Baker Newby LLP, through contributions to both foundations, will enhance precision in breast cancer surgeries, allowing surgeons to locate and remove tumors with greater accuracy and comfort.

These investments represent a powerful example of what happens when our community comes together. From the generosity of local donors and the *Granting Wishes Gala* hosted by RBC and RBC Wealth Management | Koller Group, to the leadership of Baker Newby and both foundations, this is collaboration in action.

Together, we’re investing in good health, and ensuring advanced care remains close to home for the Chilliwack community.

What a reason to SMILE! An amazing community campaign in support of our local hospital!

Ivy and her team at 3 Tim Hortons locations raised over $14,000 during SMILE WEEK for the Chilliwack Hospital Foundation.

When community comes together, incredible things happen. Every Smile Cookie sold was a contribution to the equipment upgrades at our hospital. We feel so incredibly honored to have been chosen to be the recipients of this incredible initiative.

Thank you to Tim Hortons, RBC, Chilliwack Chamber, 89.5 JR Country, and each and every one of you who smiled in support of the Chilliwack Hospital.

A transport stretcher for the Intensive Care Unit has been on the wishlist for quite some time, and thanks to the incredible generosity of Chad Robertson, we have been able
to fund this piece of equipment.
