Lights of Hope returning to Chinook Regional Hospital

LETHBRIDGE, AB – The Chinook Regional Hospital Foundation (CRHF) has announced the return of the annual Lights of Hope campaign.

It invites people to donate in the memory of loved ones or in honour of medical professionals. Officials said the proceeds go directly to the most urgent needs of the hospital, providing critical health care resources.

Sherri Odland, Interim Executive Director at the CRHF, stressed the impact of each contribution, saying, “Every donation is a beacon of hope. It brings cutting-edge health care to our doorstep, ensuring that excellence in care becomes a gift shared by the entire community. As a donor, you are truly making a difference – for your loved ones, for the community, and for those who need it most.”

Last year’s campaign raised over $150,000, making it one of CRHF’s most impactful annual causes. Officials said these funds are crucial in supporting hospital programs and aiding the success of projects like the Inpatient Psychiatry and Psychiatric Assessment (PAN) teams.

This year, the proceeds of the campaign will go toward broader hospital needs such as state-of-the-art health care equipment, supporting essential programs, and facilitating high-needs projects that contribute to critical care.
