Black Tie BingoEach year Saskatoon City Hospital Foundation (SCHF) through the Black

Tie Bingo committee strives to host an amazing evening of glitz, glamour and bingo fun. The feedback from patrons was amazing: fun was had by all and, even better, our biggest profit to date – $228,000!

Each of the bingo committee members went the extra mile to make Black Tie Bingo an event that raised a tremendous amount of money to help further the cause of Saskatoon City Hospital Foundation and its stakeholders.

Our thanks go to the Wyant Group for their continued and amazing support of this event. They’ve been title sponsor since day one and can always be counted on to go the extra mile.

Many thanks also to PotashCorp, who stepped up this year to sponsor our reception and continue to be one of our community’s brightest stars.

To all other sponsors, those who donated prizes, bought tickets, volunteered or helped in any way, we say a heartfelt thank you! Thanks also to each our bingo committee members, and Saskatoon City Hospital Foundation’s volunteer board of directors and staff who went above and beyond to help make the event a huge success in so many ways.

We look forward to an even bigger and better bingo in 2017 – mark your calendars for March 18. If you want to stay in touch with Black Tie Bingo, just look for the page on Facebook and click like. See you next year!

Foundation CEO MessageWow! Another Black Tie Bingo was another rousing success. The event was sold out

once again and was just one fun, fun evening. Thanks to Bart Hunter and the organizing committee for all of your hard work. Raising more than $228,000 is a win for all.

For those who attended or sponsored the Black Tie Bingo, thank you for supporting Saskatoon City Hospital Foundation. I’m pleased to say that the Bingo supported the MS Clinical Research Chair. Over the years, thanks to events like Black Tie Bingo, we’ve been able to raise $5 million to support the creation of this vital position.

Bingo proceeds also went to the Foundation’s Equip for Excellence campaign. Equip for Excellence is a multi-million dollar campaign to improve every area of the hospital.

As a bingo supporter, you’re helping purchase equipment, resources and technology. You’re helping patients see better, walk better and live better.

If you had fun at the bingo, be sure to check out other Foundation events like Golfun (May 19) Ouzopalooza (June 10), and the Festival of Trees Fire & Ice Gala (November 21). For more information or to donate online, visit SaskatoonCityHospitalFoundation.com.

Bingo raises $228,000 for Foundation

The only free spaces to be found were on the Bingo cards. That’s because another sold-out crowd –almost 500 people – packed the Sheraton Cavalier for the 2016 Black Tie Bingo. Excitement overflowed with some great bingo prizes, live auction items and a seemingly unending host of silent auction ware. In the end, it all came together to create one impressive number – $228,000!

As they have before, proceeds will be used to provide hope for people with MS. Funds

benefit the creation of an MS Clinical Research Chair in Saskatchewan. The Chair will inspire and coordinate research across the province into causes and treatments for MS with the ultimate goal of finding a cure.

The Foundation is excited to hint that there will be some very good news about this campaign in the near future. Funds also support the Foundation’s Equip for Excellence campaign. Equip for Excellence is a multi-million dollar campaign to improve every area of the hospital. By ensuring staff have the best equipment, technology and resources, you’ve helped a grandfather read to his granddaughter for the first time. You’ve helped a man return to

work after a bilateral stroke. And you’ve helped an active women resume her life after knee surgery. You’ve helped people see better, walk better and live better.

If you’d like to know more about Equip for Excellence and some current needs, visit SCHFequip.com.

To all sponsors, supporters, volunteers and organizers of the Black Tie Bingo – and on behalf of the staff and patients of Saskatoon City Hospital – the Foundation says thank you!
