How Your Support Helps

• 75% of the funds raised through the 50/50 raffle will directly support the Taber & District Health Foundation’s mission to improve healthcare in our community.

• 25% of the funds raised will go to Ronald McDonald House Charities of Alberta, helping families stay close to their children receiving medical care.

Eat, Give, and Celebrate on McHappy Day!

Join us on April 25 at the Taber Dairy Queen for Blizzard Treat Day, where every Blizzard purchased helps fund the acquisition of a vital signs monitor for the Acute Care unit at Taber Health Centre.

This essential equipment addresses the current shortage and allows for:

• Timelier assessments: Reducing delays and improving care efficiency.

• Enhanced safety: Dedicated monitors for isolation rooms protect against transmissible infections.

• Reduced burden on staff: Fewer waits for equipment and less time spent on disinfection.

This is not a replacement or new treatment but a critical step in equipping Acute Care to meet growing patient needs. Enjoy a Blizzard and make a difference!

It is that time of year again when the Kiwanis Club invites you to join as a sponsor of the upcoming Kiwanis Golf Tournament on June 13th at the Taber Golf Course. 

Now in its 28th year, this popular, community-focused tournament provides the perfect opportunity for sponsors and participants to network with new or potential clients and strengthen relationships with existing business contacts in a relaxed and fun environment.

SPACE LAB WALL MOUNT PATIENT MONITORS:

We are excited to announce our fundraising initiative for this year’s golf tournament will be two Space Lab Wall Mount Patient Monitors for the Emergency Department at the Taber Health Centre. These monitors are designed to not only track vital signs but also monitor the cardiac rhythms of patients, enhancing the efficiency and utilization of equipment in the Emergency Room. The estimated total for this project is $40,000.

GET INVOLVED:

Sponsors also receive great exposure before, during and after the event. Your sponsorship contribution enables this event to take place and helps support the Taber & District Health Foundation’s fundraising efforts. The TDHF works towards fulfilling its vision and mission by promoting programs and services and providing for special initiatives such as new technology, specialized equipment and innovative projects that enhance healthcare services in our community. Raising and distributing funds is a major part of what the Foundation does every year.

We hope we can count on your kind support and generosity to make this event successful. Please contact: Kiwanis Club President, Henk DeVlieger@ 403-634-1204 or Devlieger.henk@gmail.com.

Who’s ready to give back? On Wednesday, May 8, a portion of proceeds from All menu items at the Taber McDonald’s will support initiatives at the Foundation! 

All Day May 8, proceeds from your purchases at McDonald’s will be allocated towards purchasing a portable Fetal Monitoring Device for the Taber Health Centre.

The Taber Health Center is delivering more babies than ever. These upgraded fetal monitoring systems enable Labour and Delivery staff to safely and accurately monitor the baby and mom's well-being before and during labour while also ensuring the comfort of the mom as she can move around the room while monitoring is taking place. The transducers are also waterproof, which fits nicely for the patient who wants to labour and/or deliver in our water delivery tub. Being that the device is portable it can also be used wherever it is needed such as Labour and Delivery, ER, or the Operating Room.

Join the Foundation on May 10 at the Taber McDonald’s for McHappy Day. 75% of funds raised from all sales will go towards our Foundation and 25% to the Ronald McDonald Charities.

Although the event runs all day, bring the kids and join us from 4:30 – 7:00 pm for face painting, games, the opportunity to win some prizes, an awesome DJ as well as Taber Fire on scene with their Fire Truck (pending no emergencies).

McHappy Day funds will be utilized to purchase a specialized children’s treadmill and therapy equipment for children that utilize the services of Allied Health Services at the Taber Health Centre. These new resources (including books, games, puzzles, feeding supplies, toys, equipment, and play structures) will make play-based therapy sessions more engaging for both the children and their families we connect with, and provide a much broader range of environments for those children to learn, develop, and succeed in.

Thank you for your support of this and all Foundation events.
