Fund-A-Need
Funds raised during our Fund-A-Need will support genomics-informed care provided by the Provincial Medical Genetics Program (PMGP), a provincial centre of excellence located at BC Women’s Hospital + Health Centre. Genomics-informed care, particularly for patients with rare and/or inherited disorders, has been shown to result in faster and more accurate diagnoses, improved outcomes, and reduced health care costs. Genomics care provides precise, patient-specific treatment plans for: expectant mothers that can save a newborn’s life upon delivery; critically-ill infants in the NICU; those born with genetic cancer susceptibility syndrome; patients with genetic eye-disorders and more. Let’s save little lives, and lengthen and improve quality of life for British Columbians.
Women’s Health Champion
The Women’s Health Champion is awarded to an individual, family or organization who is dedicated to advancing women’s health and contributed to transforming healthcare for women. They have inspired the community to ensure all women at all life stages have access to the highest quality healthcare when, where and how they need it. They are selected by a committee comprised of BC Women’s Hospital + Health Centre, Women’s Health Research Institute (WHRI), Foundation and Glow Committee leaders.
This year, we will pay tribute to two Women’s Health Champions who have philanthropically, or through their life’s work, improved the health of women in BC.
