Burnaby Hospital Foundation’s signature event, The Slice, celebrated an astounding success on Friday, June 18, 2010, raising $107,610 to help purchase vital equipment needed at Burnaby Hospital.
“This is a significant achievement towards this year’s goal of $3 million for Burnaby Hospital’s highest priority equipment needs,” said Marcia Harrison, Acting President with Burnaby Hospital Foundation. “We couldn’t have reached this success without the dedication of our supporters. The proceeds raised from The Slice will truly help Burnaby Hospital care for its patients and the community at large.”
Now in its 24th year, The Slice drew a crowd of over 300 supporters to participate in the annual golf tournament at Riverway Golf Course and evening comedy night at the Hilton Vancouver Metrotown. Highlights from the full-day affair included activities like the “Closest to the Firehose” challenge (courtesy of the Burnaby Firefighters) and comedian extraordinaire, Roman Danylo (who has graced the stages of Just for Laughs and NBC’s Late Friday).
All proceeds from The Slice support Burnaby Hospital Foundation’s goal of $3 million to help purchase critical equipment at Burnaby Hospital.
