SOUTH AND CENTRAL HEALTH FOUNDATION 

Thank you to all who attended, sponsored and partnered with our charity for our inaugural Fall Fundraising Gala that took place Thursday, October 27th, 2022.

​

The pandemic had put many things on hold, including plans to host this event back in 2020. With this newly created signature event we feel very privileged to have the support of our sponsors, our donors, volunteers and attendees, to bring together this community for an amazing evening to advance healthcare in our region.

​

The Gala, featured a locally-sourced meal prepared and overseen by a culinary team put in place by our Title Sponsor, Aramark Canada, and featured Celebrity Chef Todd Perrin of Mallard Cottage in St. John’s.

​

The event kicked off with a cocktail hour including a complementary micro-brew sample from Bumblebee Bight Brewery in Pilley’s Island, with owners Dino and Natalie Colbourne on site to serve our guests personally. Guests enjoyed a charcuterie prepared by local chef David Rheault of Juniper Kitchen Bistro in Grand Falls-Windsor. During this time our guests also had the opportunity to browse the 27 silent and live auction items up for bids and enjoyed the beautiful vocals of Charlotte Carey.

​

We are grateful for the long-standing partnership with our Title Sponsor Aramark Canada for initiating this wonderful idea of a gala. We would like to thank all our sponsors for their continued support. This is truly a "local event" - from our meal ingredients sourced from local farms, to our silent auction items donated by local artists, to the countless businesses who didn't hesitate to donate to our live auction when our staff called on them for support! It was a truly inspirational evening!
