“I was drawn to volunteer for the Surrey Hospitals Foundation Board during the Children’s Health Centre campaign. I was compelled to do so to ensure that families south of the Fraser River with children who needed hospital care would not also have to bear the burden of significant travel, while still having to attend to the day-to-day needs of the rest of their families.
The Foundation plays a vital role in ensuring that the equipment and programs available for residents are quite simply ‘state of the art’. It is the difference between providing something acceptable and something exceptional, so that Surrey is a leader in the region, in providing care to residents south of the Fraser River. The parallel growth between this region, and the foundation over the years is truly inspirational.”
