NORTHUMBERLAND COUNTY – As Northumberland Hills Hospital (NHH) Foundation prepares for the return of their traditional fundraising gala for the first time in two years, organizers are excited to announce the event has the highest number of Platinum Sponsors of any gala to date, with seven sponsors currently participating at the Platinum level.
“We are really impressed by the response our local business community has had to our Gala once again,” shares Trenholm Parker, Gala Sponsorship Chair. “In addition to seven Platinum Sponsors, we currently have three Gold, seven Silver, and six Spirit Sponsors joining us this year. This strong support sends a clear message of how much our local businesses value having high quality care close to home, and a hospital well-equipped to care for their teams, families, clients, and friends.”
Returning as Platinum Sponsors are Cameco, HTM, and McCracken Towing Inc., while Spoolon, National Shunt Services Ltd., and Canadian Tire Cobourg are increasing their previous sponsorship to the Platinum level. Rounding out the list of Platinum Sponsors is a new Gala sponsor, Farrow & Associates Real Estate.
“Growing up in Northumberland, and working within the real estate industry, you quickly realize how important it is that our community is supported by strong healthcare and a thriving hospital,” shares Aaron Farrow of Farrow & Associates Real Estate. “Countless times residents currently living in Northumberland, or moving to the area from a distance, factor in the proximity to our hospital as a significant feature in deciding where they choose to call home – we want to ensure we are supporting the needs of our clients and our community and felt that contributing to the NHH is an amazing way to do that.”
This year’s Gold Sponsors include Kawartha Credit Union, Lubricon, and Vandermeer Toyota. Joining at the Silver Sponsor level are Trade Tech Industries, the Moulton Family, Third Street Law, IBEW – Electrical Union, Stevenson Building Products, Boomer Brand Management, and Mawer.
Gala 2022 – A Black Tie Evening will take place Saturday, November 5, 2022 at the Cobourg Lions Community Centre and will raise funds to support the purchase of life-saving medical equipment at NHH.
