Recognize a STAR

Celebrate a caregiver

With selfless devotion, the team at Royal Columbian saves lives, restores health and provides comfort to thousands of people each year.

Has a member of our team gone above and beyond for you or a loved one? Recognize their dedication and efforts by making them a STAR with a donation in their honour.

How it works:

To recognize a STAR, make a donation in the amount of your choice to Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation and indicate the individual or team who you’d like to honour.

Your STAR will receive a star pin in honour of their efforts and dedication to exceptional care. Your donation will also help the Foundation support priority equipment needs, hospital renovations, major projects, research, education and innovation.

A pin to wear with pride

Your STAR will be notified and personally recognized with a special pin that acknowledges their efforts. Hospital departments that are honoured will receive a certificate.

The gift amount will remain private, and donations can be made anonymously if requested.
