About the KGH Foundation

The KGH Foundation was established in 1978 to support the growing demand by local philanthropists to close the gap between the provincial standard and what is possible in the delivery of advanced medical care in the southern interior. We are the lead fundraising organization for the Kelowna General Hospital and its associated care facilities, JoeAnna’s House and the Central Okanagan Hospice House.

We all will face a medical emergency or serious illness at some point in our lives. And when we do, access to state-of-the-art medical facilities and the highest quality patient care is the difference; a promise of hope, relief, comfort, and peace in the face of the unknown. Together with our donors, through partnership, structured investment and imagination, we build the foundations for change and world-class health care right here at home.

Vision

World-class healthcare at home. This vision describes the Foundation’s hope that world-class healthcare is not the purview of large cities alone. Through innovation, technology, and commitment world-class healthcare can be made available to everyone wherever they may call home. 

Mission

Catalyze the community through leadership, partnership, innovation and challenging the status quo. Our mission centers on our role in focusing on caring and philanthropy in a unique and innovative way on the task of creating world-class healthcare for everyone.
