Black Tie Bingo
The Foundation of Guelph General Hospital’s 27th annual Black Tie Bingo, presented by Co-operators and Meridian Credit Union, returned to an-in person event on Saturday, March 4th at The Grand Guelph, with over 400 sponsors, guests and volunteers taking part.
It is with immense gratitude that we announce that together, the Guelph community raised a total of $484,000 for our local Hospital! These funds will help Guelph General Hospital to act quickly on emerging surgical equipment needs.
This success shatters fundraising records and it was all made possible thanks to many individuals and organizations in our community. We would like to thank all of our sponsors, ticket purchasers, partners, in-kind contributors, guests, prize donors, volunteers and donors for your support. Every piece of equipment used in the direct care of patients at Guelph General Hospital is funded by community donations, so we truly couldn’t do it without you.
We would like to give a special thank you to James Hutton from Hutton Forest Products. Inspired by the kindness of the Guelph community and in honour of his parents who passed away during COVID, James agreed on the night to increase his matching gift from $100,000 to $150,000 for the Hutton Match. A total $117,252 was donated by community members and guests leading up to and at the event, and up to the extended March 8th match deadline. Later, James’ generosity confirmed that he would proceed with the full $150,000 donation – a remarkable contribution to GGH!
This year’s Black Tie Bingo was another momentous illustration of the power of our community. Together, we are transforming healthcare through giving. Thank you.
