The Delta Hospital Foundation announced the Ladner Legion has made a donation of $16,000.
In the past 20 years, the Ladner Legion has donated over $100,000 to purchase vital equipment for the hospital.
Ladner Legion members Trevor Castle and Jim Ingram presented Jackey Zellweger, the foundation's corporate and event manager, with a cheque. The donation was given in support of the foundation's signature annual events, the
Delta Health Golf Classic and Moonlight Gala. All funds are directed toward the Hospital's Greatest Needs Fund.
Thrilled about the Legion's decision to support the Moonlight Gala for the first time, Zellweger said, "The Ladner Legion has always been a big supporter of the hospital and I'm just so happy they've come onboard for our 15th annual Moonlight Gala."
Foundation executive director Veronica Carroll shared the enthusiasm,
stating, "We couldn't be more grateful to the Ladner Legion in all that they do for us. They truly embody the essence of community giving."
Since 1928, the Ladner Legion has supported the community though various fundraising and volunteer programs. With a commitment to veterans, their families and their community, the Ladner Legion provides over $60,000 annually to help fund various local organizations and initiatives.
