Saturday, September 19, 2026

On Saturday, September 19, we gathered at Wye Heritage Marina in Midland for Power of Giving 2026—an unforgettable evening celebrating the people, stories, and generosity that make excellent care close to home possible.

Thank you for showing us the Power of Giving!

GBGH Foundation’s We See You: Inside and Out campaign is helping to transform care for every patient, care provider, and loved one who walks through the doors at Georgian Bay General Hospital. Because when our community comes together, we do more than fund equipment and spaces. We remind every person receiving or providing care that they are seen, valued, and supported.

This year on Saturday, September 19th, the GBGH Foundation hosted the Power of Giving at Wye Heritage Marina. At the event, we celebrated how far we’ve come through the first phase of the We See You campaign and we are thrilled to share that an incredible $446,385 in total was raised that night for the next phase of impact for GBGH. 

While that number is significant and inspiring, what stands out even more is how we got there. Together, hundreds of individuals from our community contributed – through event sponsorship, donations, buying GBay Bags, bidding on auction items and buying event tickets.

There is a BIG community out there believing in our hospital and cheering the GBGH team on with their voices and investment. Thank you to everyone who contributed to making the event a huge success!!! We are so grateful and can’t wait to see even more we can do, together.
