There's still time to purchase a ticket for this exceptional fundraising gala. Funds raised will go towards hiring a much needed registered nurse. If you're not able to attend you might consider buying a proxy ticket for someone who can't afford it right now. Proxy ticket buyers will receive a tax receipt.Sadly as many folks know, the annual Galiano Wine Festival was canceled this year. But do not despair because the GHCS is orchestrating a gala like no other ever!
150 fortunate folks are welcome to attend, so please do not delay in your ticket purchase(s).

Think delectable canapés, opportunities to bid on extremly dreamy auction items, lovely yet lively musical performances... all being hosted in one of Galiano's most tranquil settings at the Woodstone Manor.
But, the biggest reason for you to come is to support your local island medical clinic.
Much gratitude 🙏 ✨️ ... See MoreSee Less

And we will be at the Saturday Market to answer any questions. Also, we will have actual tickets for purchase if going on the website www.galianohealth.org if it's too tricky for you. The Galiano Bookstore will have tickets for sale as well.
Happy Saturday!
We love the Saturday Market, but please remember, people are working at the clinic on the weekends and require parking and building access for their patients. The ambulance also needs access to the treatment room and helipad. ... See MoreSee Less

Did you know that the Woodstone Manor Gala Fundraiser on Saturday September 16th is an opportunity for you to help the Galiano Health Care Society potentially hire a registered nurse!?
Our practitioners have told us that a key way to address the current patient waitlist and delays and deficiencies in clinical care is to establish funding for a registered nurse as soon as possible.
Thanks to everyone who has already purchased a ticket to support the GHCS and wants to celebrate in style. ... See MoreSee Less
