SPRING/SUMMER 2016 Peace Arch Hospital & Community Health FOUNDATION TOUCHING LEGACY FOR PEACE ARCH HOSPITAL HOGG BURSARY AWARDS PEI DOCTOR MEET AN EXTRAORDINARY GIFT TO THE NEW ER LYNNE QUIGLEY & PATRICIA JOHNSTON Carry on the tradition for the Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary Society ✚ LEADING THE WAY WELCOME TO OUR NEWEST EDITION OF thrive! As usual, the Foundation office has been buzzing with activity. We wrapped up our 2016 Gala, which raised a staggering $435,000+ for the purchase of a brand new, modern digital x-ray unit for the hospital’s medical imaging department, and the plans are coming together for the ER expansion and new residential care and hospice facility. Needless to say, it has been all hands on deck! Speaking of the Peace Arch Hospital Gala, we decided to shake things up for 2016 and create a whole new experience for our guests, some of whom come year after year. Our Vintage Vegas themed evening was a huge success complete with Elvis, the Rat Pack and a special appearance by Marilyn Monroe who sang her rendition of Happy Birthday to our outgoing board chair, Art Reitmayer, as only Marilyn can. Look for pictures of this fun night of philanthropy on page 6. I would also like to introduce you to our new board chair, Siobhan Philips, who took the reins just last month. She is a dedicated volunteer and passionate fundraiser who has a long history of giving back to her community. Check out pages 12 and 13 for a profile on Siobhan. Lastly, we feature two extraordinary donors in this issue – Westland Insurance who recently made a gift of $500,000 to the ER expansion project and the late Margaret Rodgers, a wonderful friend of the Foundation who dedicated her final birthday to fundraise for Peace Arch Hospital. She was deeply committed to inspiring others to give and wanted her legacy to live on long after she was gone. We think she did just that. We hope you enjoy our beautiful summer on the Peninsula!

SPRING/SUMMER 2016 3 ✚ DONOR PROFILE MARGARET RODGERS This is our community hospital and we can be proud of it. But ongoing community support is required too so they can give patients – possibly YOU – the best treatment possible. When she was 16 years old, Margaret Rodgers received news that no teenager should hear: she had bone cancer in her shoulder blade and she would not live to see her twentieth birthday. Margaret made a very touching speech in which she discussed her life and the importance of supporting the hospital. She implored her guests to realize they would all need to use it at some point. After refusing to have her arm amputated at the shoulder, she tried what was then a very experimental treatment – chemotherapy. When Margaret celebrated her 60th birthday – realizing she had lived 40 years longer than expected, her sister held a party in England where the guests raised £500, which she donated to her mother’s hospice. Of utmost importance to Margaret was spreading the idea that for special occasions, instead of receiving unneeded gifts from our families, we could ask them to donate to the hospital instead. She believed passionately that if as many people as possible would ask their families and friends to donate to the hospital, or hold fundraising parties like she did, the amount could add up to very significant and meaningful donations to the hospital, and to the wellbeing of our community. Every five years, Margaret celebrated with another fundraiser. After 50 years of “miraculous survival,” she raised $1,000 and donated it to Peace Arch Hospital & Community Health Foundation. For her 75th birthday this past October, Margaret contacted staff at the Foundation to inquire about planning another celebratory fundraiser, fearing this one would truly be her last birthday. On October 24, 2015, 60 of Margaret’s closest friends, acquaintances and colleagues gathered to celebrate at Victory Memorial Park, the most suitable venue she could find, as well as a source of ironic humour for her – Margaret had a spry and witty way of speaking about life and death. “I hope that my little contribution could be just the start of what could mushroom into a significant amount, on a continuing basis, as more and more people contribute yearly on their birthdays.” Margaret continued to move this dream forward even as she was becoming increasingly ill. She passed away on March 23, 2016. Margaret was a phenomenal woman, a passionate leader, and a close friend to Peace Arch Hospital. She will be dearly missed. In her own remarkable words: “...at least I will have survived long enough to try to help all those who survive me with this idea to encourage a better community spirit.” If you would like to donate to Margaret Rodgers’ tribute fund, or learn more about fundraising on behalf of the hospital, please visit pahfoundation.ca/ways-to-give/tribute-giving 4 thrive OUR THRIVING COMMUNITY ✚ Thanks to one of the Foundation’s Because People Matter grants, a new inclusive community garden operated by Alexandra Neighbourhood House recently opened on a one-acre site located on 128 Street and 25 Avenue, just behind Crescent Park Elementary in South Surrey. In alignment with the Foundation’s Our Healthy Community initiative, the project aims to nurture social connection and encourage healthier food choices by providing the opportunity for enthusiastic gardeners of all ages and abilities to grow their own fruits and vegetables. Of the 58 garden plots, 46 are 10’ x 5’ raised beds, 10 are 4’ x 8’ wheelchairaccessible beds and two are designated for Crescent Park Elementary students to learn alongside the most experienced gardeners. A percentage of the plots are also reserved for Kiwanis Park Place residents. “This really is a community outreach and engagement project,” says Neil Fernyhough, Manager of Community Programs at Alexandra Neighbourhood House. “One of our principles is that community gardens should be a neighbourhood activity. Gardeners frequently get together for barbecues and pot lucks, increasing the bonds of community and reducing social isolation.” Fernyhough says another important aspect of a community garden is the access it provides to safe, organic local sources of food. From encouraging physical activity and social connection to improving mental and emotional health through the therapeutic practice of gardening, the benefits of participating in a community garden are numerous. And the best part is a refrigerator filled with fresh produce that you grew yourself, all summer long. To learn more information or to find out how to get involved, visit alexhouse.net/community-garden or contact Neil Fernyhough at 604.535.0015 extension 236 or email [email protected]. Community gardens provide an opportunity for education on food and food production in general. From composting to growing to cooking and preserving food, and back to composting again. SPRING/SUMMER 2016 5 ✚ RAISING FUNDS Presented by On Saturday, May 14, a sold-out crowd lined the red carpet at Centennial Arena to celebrate Peace Arch Hospital and the Golden Age of Las Vegas. An astounding $435,000 (net) was raised for the purchase of a critically-needed digital x-ray unit for the hospital’s radiology department. The evening featured performances by the Rat Pack, Elvis Presley, Liza Minnelli and a special rendition of Happy Birthday sung by Marilyn Monroe to Foundation Past Chair, Art Reitmayer. It was a spectacle of dazzling entertainment that also included the famous Las Vegas show girls, a sleight of hand magician, casino games and the fantastic party music of The HitZone. Our guests – community and business leaders, philanthropists and caring citizens - attended Vintage Vegas because they believe their family, friends and neighbours deserve the best healthcare possible. I know I speak for our medical staff, physicians and patients when I say how truly grateful we are for your contributions. - Stephanie Beck, Executive Director A tremendous thank you to our exceptionally generous donors and sponsors, and our tireless volunteers who joined us in Las Vegas, White Rock-style! 6 thrive RAISING FUNDS ✚ Purely Local A group of wonderful women in our community formed Purely Local, a pop-up shopping event on April 9 in support of pediatric equipment in Peace Arch Hospital’s emergency department. Featuring locally made clothing, art and unique household items, $300 was raised from the entrance fees. Thank you Corie, Kelsey and Grace! Thank you Rotary Club of White Rock! Members of the Rotary Club of White Rock donated $32,100 towards the purchase of medical equipment for the hospital, including three vital signs monitors for elder acute care and one bladder scanner for the mental health and substance abuse zone. The dedicated group of volunteers has raised $322,000 for the hospital since 1987 through their popular book sales. Moby Dick’s March of Giving Moby Dick Restaurant continued their tradition of giving with their annual March fundraiser for Peace Arch Hospital. Fifty cents from every customer bill was donated, raising $1,974 for the hospital’s area of greatest need. FUNDRAISING FLASHBACK The very first gala fundraiser for Peace Arch Hospital took place on November 18, 1989 and was held on the top floor of the Pacific Terrace on Russell Avenue. Tickets were $40 per person and each guest was given a Champagne flute for the cocktail reception. Smoked salmon and caviar was served, there were prize draws and Alderman Vin Coyne acted as Master of Ceremonies. Twenty-eight years later, the gala may look very different but the sentiment is the same – to raise funds for our local hospital while enjoying a glitzy night out. SPRING/SUMMER 2016 7 ✚ FEATURE STORY Lynne QUIGLEY Patricia JOHNSTON LEAD A PASSIONATE TRIBE OF WOMEN “This is a wonderful way to give back,” says past president, Patricia Johnston. “There are so many dedicated and amazing women in our Auxiliary, starting right from the early days to where we are today.” Since 1948, before the hospital was even built, the Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary Society has been raising funds for the hospital’s facilities along with patient comforts and care. Starting with the very first cheque for $1,000 that convinced the B.C. government to build their newest hospital in White Rock instead of Cloverdale, the women (and a few good men) who make up the Auxiliary have never looked back. Now, 68 years later, this dedicated group of volunteers has raised more than $13 million for Peace Arch Hospital. Though the general demographic of volunteers has evolved over the years – today, people are working longer before retiring and often head south for the winter when they do – the Auxiliary still recruits 15-20 new volunteers each year. “We all work together so well,” says president, Lynne Quigley. “It really is a social organization and we take a collaborative approach. We’ve all become friends, and for many, joining the Auxiliary comes at a time in our lives when we need friends.” The origins of the Auxiliary were made up of a number of fundraising “groups” who would put on bake sales, craft sales or community suppers and then once a month, each group would announce their fundraising totals. With the changing landscape of volunteers, those groups have dwindled from 19 to just nine in the last 15 years, but fundraising is still going full force. 8 thrive FEATURE STORY ✚ The Superfluity Shop, the Auxiliary’s iconic thrift store, brings in $40,000$45,000 per month and Patricia counts that success as one of her proudest achievements. “I’ve passed the torch to Lynne and I know she’ll do a tremendous job,” Patricia says. “She started with us 10 years ago as the Director of Finance and knows the organization in and out.” “In addition to holding every position in the Executive, I managed the Superfluity Shop for five years,” Patricia says. “We had a fire in the shop in 2012 and we came back even stronger, the numbers are better than ever.” In fact, the Director of Finance is the lone paid position in the volunteer-driven Auxiliary. Lynne accepted that position in 2003 and retired in 2013. Patricia says a good month at the shop in 2003 was $18,000 so she’s especially pleased with the current profits. Those profits, along with the fundraising by the various groups, have allowed the Auxiliary to make an extraordinary gift, their largest ever, to the Foundation for $1.5 million. This will go towards the new emergency department slated to open in a few years. “I am so thrilled for the Auxiliary’s approval of the ER project,” Lynne says. “Our members vote on where the funds should be directed and this was identified as a priority.” As part of the recognition the Auxiliary receives for their generosity, the Acute Care Zone, one mental health exam room, two treatment rooms, one alcove and one triage registration station in the new ER will be named in its honour. Looking ahead, Patricia reflects on her time as president, a two-year term that wrapped up in June when Lynne took over. “When I retired, I took six months off and then started volunteering in the gift shop,” Lynne says. “I just couldn’t leave! I have enjoyed my time with these wonderful women so much and look forward to leading the organization for the next two years.” As for Patricia, she’ll remain on the Executive team as Past President, a role that brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. “Past President is a very valued position,” Lynne says. “Patricia will still vote with the rest of the Executive and I know her insight will be helpful to us.” The two challenges Lynne anticipates in the coming years is recruiting new volunteers from an aging demographic and adapting the organization’s by-laws to comply with the new B.C. Societies Act which comes into law in 2018. “We’re bringing the Auxiliary into the 21st Century,” Lynne says. “We need to revise our by-laws to reflect how the Auxiliary is evolving but our priorities remain true to what they were 68 years ago - to raise funds for medical equipment, capital projects and patient comforts and care.” And just like 68 years ago, a group of phenomenal women is making a significant impact on health care in this community, one fundraiser at a time. UPDATE The new Emergency Department renovation and expansion is progressing along behind the scenes. The architects are busy finalizing plans and we are looking forward to breaking ground. Of the $15 million needed for the project, we are thrilled to report that we’ve reached $10.3 million in donations! That means we are two-thirds of the way there and we hope to have this critically important redevelopment plan fully funded soon. Special thanks to the leadership donors who recently made extremely generous gifts: Gary and Anne McPhail for $100,000, the Cameron family for $150,000, the Schill family for $150,000, $500,000 (see page 14) from Westland Insurance and the incredible donation of $1.5 million from the Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary.

The Hogg Bursary celebratory tea “I am so in love with this community,” Joanne says. “I have already begun to set up my return to locum here in the fall, or sooner, and have made some great friends! I’ll definitely spread the word about White Rock.” Joanne Reid, a Prince Edward Island native and medical student at Nova Scotia’s Dalhousie University was awarded the Dr. Al Hogg Family Practice Legacy Fund Bursary earlier this year. The bursary assists family practice medical students with expenses incurred during a second year residency rotation in White Rock. As part of the bursary program, Joanne completed a preceptor rotation from January 11 to February 5 at Morgan Creek Family Practice and Peace Arch Hospital. Community-minded by nature, Joanne’s volunteer work is extensive. Having completed several half marathons, she also participates in charity events including relays and cycling. To assist others in their wellness goals, she gives nutrition presentations for a healthy living initiative in PEI and has volunteered with CNIB. Currently, she is working on a dementia care model for a local nursing home to decrease medication reliance, as well as organizing a fundraiser relay with staff from the Island’s two primary hospitals. Though Joanne was a little worried about coming to White Rock because of Surrey’s reputation for crime and the small earthquake that happened just prior to her arrival, she’s now a big fan. She and the Hogg Family, who fund the bursary, met for a celebratory tea and made an immediate connection. They even invited her over for their standing Sunday family dinner. As an avid runner, I fell in love with White Rock’s climate, beautiful views and friendly people during my stay. I hope to return to White Rock for further work as a physician. SPRING/SUMMER 2016 11 ✚ FOUNDATION SPOTLIGHT Siobhan PhilipsTAKES My mantra has always been that one should endeavor to give back with one or more of the three Ts: time, treasure or talent. With this board, it truly is all three. As the new Board Chair for Peace Arch “I had loads of fun in Ottawa but then my Hospital & Community Health Foundation, parents decided to move to Ottawa too,” Siobhan Philips knows a thing or two Siobhan laughs. “So I skipped over to about giving back to her community. Born Montreal and continued graduate studies in in Glasgow, Scotland, Siobhan moved communications at Concordia University.” to Canada as a baby and after stints in Toronto, North Bay, Thunder Bay and Winnipeg, she spent her formative years in the small town of Sioux Lookout in Northwestern Ontario. “My mom was always very active in volunteering,” Siobhan says. “I think I followed her lead and began my own volunteering in elementary school, first as a junior figure skating coach at the town’s hub of activity, the local figure skating club. Later, I became involved in student government and was active on every school team and club I could find. From organizing pancake breakfasts during our school’s From Concordia, Siobhan made her way to the University of Montreal, earning a Civil Law degree in French. Shortly after being called to the Quebec Bar, Siobhan married her husband Alex, a wealth management advisor. With the 1995 Quebec referendum fresh on their minds, they moved to Kingston, Ontario where the first two of their three daughters, Hannah and Katie, were born. “Kingston was where I first became involved with a hospital foundation,” Siobhan says. “I helped out on Kingston General Hospital’s gala organizing committee while teaching winter carnivals to attending leadership part-time Alternative Dispute Resolution/ conferences thousands of miles away, I Mediation at Queen’s University.” was fortunate to do it all and learn so much She served as a member of the Kingston along with way.” General Hospital Board of Directors for With her secondary school diploma in three years, and was ready to take the helm hand, Siobhan left the north for the as Chair when her husband was offered nation’s capital and enrolled at Carleton an exciting career opportunity in Geneva, University in Ottawa, where she completed Switzerland. The family was keen to embark a Bachelor of Arts, majoring in political on a new adventure in Europe, however, science and English. when 9/11 happened, everything changed. 12 thrive “Although we were disappointed the Geneva transfer fell through, Alex was ultimately transferred to St. Helier, Jersey in the Channel Islands,” Siobhan says. “We spent two wonderful and idyllic years there and returned to Canada with two happy girls sporting adorable English accents and a third child on the way.” Baby Niamh was born shortly after their return and the Philips family settled in Mississauga where Siobhan decided to give real estate a shot. She obtained her realtor’s license and dove head first into the busy Southern Ontario real estate market. Fast forward five years with Siobhan involved in a thriving real estate business, several volunteer roles and wrangling three small children, and Alex was once again offered a transfer – this time to White Rock, and who could refuse such a beautiful destination? “The girls were still quite young and I was starting to realize how much I was missing out on their growing up,” Siobhan says. “I thought about going back to law part-time and how snow would be on our terms on the west coast, as in us going to it instead of the other way around, so we packed up our Ontario life and headed west.” Siobhan and Alex landed in White Rock in October 2008 and haven’t looked back. Looking for volunteer opportunities in her new home, Siobhan found herself once again helping with a hospital foundation’s gala after a chance meeting with Jackie Smith, who was the Foundation’s Executive Director at the time. “Jackie convinced me to join the gala committee in 2009 and I went on to chair several galas in a row. In 2012, I had the pleasure of joining the Board of Directors. FOUNDATION SPOTLIGHT ✚ THE HELM This board truly blows me away. I’ve sat on various boards where people are serving for the wrong reasons but this is not the case here. We have a team of passionate and incredibly altruistic volunteers. My mantra has always been that one should endeavor to give back with one or more of the three Ts: time, treasure or talent. With this board, it truly is all three.” Moving forward, Siobhan plans to carry on the momentum of what Past Chair, Art Reitmayer, and Graham Cameron before him, has created in terms of vision and goals for the community. During her two-year term she can’t wait to see the shovels in the ground on the new emergency expansion and the new residential care and hospice facility. She also says the Auxiliary is top of mind for her. “I would love for the Foundation and the Auxiliary to continue to work together on our common goals,” she says. “I think there’s a misperception by some that the Auxiliary is an organization of bake sales and knitting bees, but we know that these incredible volunteers do so much more than that. They are a dynamic group of fundraising powerhouses expertly managing staggering amounts of money that are invested right back into the hospital.” For now, Siobhan is settling into her new role and preparing for the next two years, an exciting time for Peace Arch and the entire community. I am so inspired by the work that we do here and look forward to continuing that tradition of caring. I may have lived all over the world but White Rock is home and I want to give back. SPRING/SUMMER 2016 13 ✚ MAKING A DIFFERENCE WESTLAND INSURANCE DONATES $500,000 TO NEW EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT We are committed to supporting our communities and really wanted to support our hospital. Our head office is based in the community and it’s extremely important to us to give back to causes we believe in. Jason Wubs, President & Co-Chief Executive Officer In February this year, Peace Arch Hospital & Community Health Foundation received a tremendous backing of support from local insurance company, Westland Insurance. Their extraordinary donation of $500,000 will go towards expanded pediatric treatment services in the new emergency department which is scheduled to open in the next few years. The demand for dedicated space for treating children in emergency is reaching critical proportions. Many of Peace Arch Hospital’s pediatric patients require in-depth monitoring and minor procedures in ER treatment rooms, which are often where a child’s most difficult and painful experiences – such as lumbar punctures, IV insertions and blood draws – occur. The hospital’s current ER is treating nearly 7,000 pediatric patients on an annual basis with just one pediatric treatment room, which is inappropriately situated beside the one mental health treatment room. This generous gift of half a million dollars from Westland Insurance will ensure that young families moving into the area will have access to the very best treatment available for their children. The new Westland Insurance Pediatric Treatment Services will include a pediatric bay in the resuscitation room, two acute care rooms, six pediatric treatment rooms and a pediatric storage alcove. All of this will provide significantly expanded service for children, faster assessment and release, specialty pediatric equipment, as well as soothing child-friendly décor to increase a child’s comfort while in hospital. A big, heartfelt thank you to Westland Insurance! Westland Insurance is a long-time sponsor of both our fundraising gala and Great Pumpkin Run Walk and we are thrilled they have come aboard as a major contributor to our ER campaign. Peace Arch Hospital was built by the community and that tradition continues to this day.
