Heart & Stroke Gala
Over the past 15 years, Heart & Stroke Gala has raised over $10 million in support of our mission to promote health, save lives and enhance recovery for people living with or at risk for heart disease and stroke. Together we can beat stroke, beat heart disease and make a real difference in the lives of our family, friends and colleagues.
We’re pleased to announce that the Heart & Stroke Gala will continue to be the highly anticipated, impactful event that you've known and loved for the past 15 years. Moving forward, the Heart & Stroke Gala will take place every other year (biennial event), starting in spring of 2024. Although we will not be holding a gala event in 2023, we are optimistic and excited to have more time to plan for a fantastic and memorable event next year, when we reunite with our gala community.
We want to assure you that we will continue to work in our community to promote health, save lives and enhance recovery for people in BC living with or at risk for heart disease and stroke. And we can't wait to gather again next year, for a celebration full of FUN and IMPACT in Spring of 2024. We will continue to update you as our plans evolve.
By working together, we can beat stroke!
