Help us lift our Emergency Department

This year VGH & UBC Hospital Foundation was excited to introduce LiftED, a new fundraising event supporting Vancouver General Hospital’s Emergency Department (ED) that took place at Dockside Restaurant on July 18, 2024.

LiftED was an unforgettable evening, featuring an upscale fun cocktail ambiance, exquisite culinary delights, and breathtaking waterfront vistas. The funds raised will help to further lift the ED team to achieve world class emergency care for our province, to handle tough challenges facing our society and to deliver top-notch patient-centric care.  

Thanks to your incredible generosity, we are proud to announce that we raised an astonishing $250,000 – an incredible achievement for this event’s inauguration! These gifts will help to lift our stellar Emergency Department team and patient care higher and further.
