Foundation spotlight series: Nicola Valley Health Care Endowment Foundation

August 2, 2024
Patients and staff at the Nicola Valley Hospital can enjoy a pergola built by the carpentry class at the Nicola Valley Institute of Technology.

Foundations in the Interior region raise funds that support medical equipment, care needs, and innovative local initiatives in their communities. Each organization includes respected community leaders, volunteers and staff who are passionate about meeting the needs of patients and families in Interior Health. Thanks to the generosity of their supporters, we all have a stronger health system. 

In this next story of our series on the incredible health-care and hospital foundations throughout our region, we interviewed Jerry Sanders, vice president and acting president of the Nicola Valley Health Care Endowment Foundation (NVHCEF).
