Vancouver REALTORS® were among the many generous sponsors and supporters of Tapestry Foundation for Health Care’s Scotiabank Feast of Fortune gala on Feb. 3, 2017. The gala raised more than $883,000 to support the surgical program at Mount Saint Joseph Hospital.
The gala’s founder, Sing Lim Yeo, O.B.C., a Senior Vice-President of Royal Pacific Realty Corp., along with his wife Patricia Yeo, has volunteered time, influence and financial support to the Chinese New Year fundraiser since its inception in 2008 and were recognized for their visionary efforts at the 2017 event.
For the past decade, the Yeos have encouraged REALTOR® support of Mount Saint Joseph Hospital. REALTORS® from Royal Pacific Realty Corp. and other Vancouver real estate firms contributed more than $140,000 in support of the Foundation’s 2017 fundraising gala.
“It was rewarding to reach a 10-year milestone at this year’s gala,” said Yeo. “We deeply value the long history of compassionate care that has been provided at Mount Saint Joseph Hospital since 1946. Through this special event, we have been proud to work with REALTORS® and other individuals and businesses in continued support of this important community hospital.”
The Scotiabank Feast of Fortune gala is a signature fundraising initiative for Tapestry Foundation, with proceeds enabling high-tech medical equipment purchases that have enhanced and helped to establish new clinical services at the hospital.
“Having such passionate and dedicated volunteers as Sing and Patricia Yeo is a tremendous complement to our work,” said Ann Adams, Tapestry Foundation’s Chief Executive Officer.
“We are grateful for their extraordinary leadership and commitment to patient care.”
Since 2008, the Scotiabank Feast of Fortune has raised more than $4.7 million for equipment needs at Mount Saint Joseph Hospital.
