White heart project

May 21, 2020

A white heart is a symbol commonly used to convey hope, pure thought and steadfast intention.

The White Heart Project was created by the Kelowna General Hospital Foundation and inspired by a deep appreciation for health-care staff and the tremendous sacrifice they are making.

In recent weeks, white hearts have sprung up across hospitals and communities throughout B.C.'s interior.

Other hospital foundations have joined the movement, including: Kamloops, Vernon, Shuswap, Salmon Arm, Guelph, Medicine Hat, and Whistler.
