“Being in a position to raise funds is such an honour, a blessing and a privilege. As a family that once had to receive months of intense care at the Alberta Children’s Hospital, I would much rather be on the side of being able to support and give than to have to receive. From the smallest amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars, each dollar has massive impact. Do what you can with what you have.”

“It can sometimes be intimidating bringing your ideas forward for a good cause, but after one phone call with the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation, I knew that my project would be a success. The staff was accommodating, encouraging, and I felt as though they were personally invested in my success from the start. I would encourage anyone with a bold idea to consider doing a fundraiser – it’s a life-changing experience.”

– Malcolm Eaton

“Being able to organize a fundraising event has been the most rewarding experience. I believe making a difference begins within the community. To be able to give to those in need and host a function for the community during these times have given me more motivation to go out and help. I look forward to more fundraisers in the future.”
