The Red Deer Regional Health Foundation is pleased to announce that it has been named the 2024 CPKC Women’s Open Community Partner with the potential to receive up to $250,000 in matching donations.

“The combined efforts of the Foundation and CPKC, fueled by the generosity of Central Albertans, will result in enhancements to Red Deer Hospital’s cardiology department and improvement to the heart health of our community,” said Manon Therriault, Red Deer Regional Health Foundation Chief Executive Officer.

“Red Deer Regional Health Foundation provides critical care and support for people in Central Alberta, including many CPKC employees and their families,” said Chad Becker, CPKC Chief of Staff. “CPKC is thrilled to have the opportunity to contribute to the critical work they do and work with the Foundation for the 2024 CPKC Women’s Open.”

As part of the partnership, CPKC will match contributions made to select Red Deer Regional Health Foundation initiatives between May 1 to July 31, 2024.

 In addition, CPKC will match donations made through the Red Deer Hospital Lottery on May 6, May 27, June 16 and June 17.

Special events will include an AHS staff event, with proceeds benefiting the cause.

A CPKC Women’s Open ProAm auction will appeal to golf enthusiasts who want to participate in the CPKC Women’s Open alongside a pro golfer.

Central Albertans can also host their own fundraisers to be matched by CPKC. For information on submitting your own fundraiser for consideration, contact the Foundation at 403-343-4773 or foundation@ahs.ca.
