The Kelowna General Hospital Foundation aspires to be a leader in the facilitation and promotion of quality health care by funding innovative and effective programs through the commitment of its members and donors.

We are incorporated as a registered charity, operating in Kemptville, Ontario to work with the staff and patients of Kemptville District Hospital, which is a 40-bed general hospital serving the south-of-Ottawa region.

This Charity was established nearly 40 years ago by a group of Royal Arch Masons with the objective of raising funds from BC and Yukon Freemasons, their families and any other potential donor who is sympathetic with the Mission of this Charity, and to distribute these funds by way of grants to purchase specific pieces of equipment for hospitals within BC and Yukon, particularly focussing on smaller regional hospitals that do not have the benefit of wealthy fund-raising Foundations. Grants made are in the region of $3000 to $10000. To date approximately $500,000 has been allocated in grants.

Colorectal cancer is currently the second leading cause of cancer death overall for men and women in Canada. Approximately 22 500 people will be diagnosed with colorectal cancer this year and sadly 9 100 will die of the disease.

Current scientific literature indicates that up to 90% or more of colorectal cancer can be successfully treated or prevented through early detection and removal of pre-cancerous polyps and through diet and regular exercise.
