Cause

Your ticket purchase will help shape the future of surgical care for Vancouver Islanders, including bringing surgical robotics to our region, through the Victoria Hospitals Foundation’s $17 million dollar campaign - It’s Time.

It’s time to prioritize a transformation in care in our operating rooms. Time to equip our referral hospitals with the latest advancements in cancer care surgical technology. Time to support our hospitals as a whole by lowering patient stays and re-admissions.

The field of medicine is constantly evolving, and our hospitals must evolve with it. Reimagining how surgeries can be improved for safety, time, and patient benefit is just one of the many advancements our Foundation is proud to support in our pursuit of life-enhancing care for patients on Vancouver Island.

Together, we will rewrite the future of healthcare by bringing surgical robotics and new, best-in class equipment into our operating rooms across various surgical specialties.
