The 7th Annual Bulkley Valley Health Gala raised an estimated $60,000 for healthcare initiatives in the region.
Executive Director of the B.V. Health Foundations Laurel Menzel says that it was a sold out event.
She says, “everybody made a difference there were donations made at the gala from $10 all the way up to $500.”
The auction raised an estimated $30,000 towards the nights total.
All the money raised will be going to a variety of causes.
November 15th is the foundations grant intake deadline.
Interested parties can go online and apply for funding for their health-related program, initiative, or purchase that they need for their organization.
Menzel says she is grateful to all the community members who rallied together to make the night possible.
