Our Vision

We support Sechelt Hospital and Sunshine Coast health care services by raising funds and awareness for equipment, facilities, special projects and staff development needs to benefit all Sunshine Coast residents.

$148,000 towards critical Operating Equipment at Sechelt Hospital

Sechelt Hospital recently purchased a Anesthetic Machine, monitors and an Omnicell automated anesthesia cart. This state-of-the-art upgrade was made possible through the generosity of Sechelt resident, Mary Lou Owen.

Since 1995, the Sechelt Hospital Foundation, through the support of our donors, has raised and invested more than $21 million in new medical equipment, facility improvements, and staff education.
