TEAM DFC
They made a promise, and they kept it! On April 22, Team Drive for the Cure, (DFC) announced they had raised over $15,000 in pledges for the Wheel to Heal (W2H) bike event May 4th, and now they are looking forward to matching that amount with funds from their Foundation.
W2H is a fundraising event of Eagle Ridge Hospital Foundation, and it relies on pledges for its bicycle event to reach its fundraising goal.
The Drive for the Cure Foundation has been a supportive team to W2H as it has for other charitable causes. Since its beginning, the Drive For the Cure Foundation, with the generous support of local BC businesses and individuals, has raised over $1 million to provide funds for cancer care and treatment for the people of B.C.
Proceeds from DFC Foundation events are used to enhance the health, well-being and quality of life for those struggling with cancer. Funds raised by the Drive for the Cure team have gone to the purchase of diagnostic and treatment equipment for a number of hospitals in B.C. including $11,400 for a colonoscope for Eagle Ridge Hospital in 2011.
Eagle Ridge Hospital Foundation wants to give a grateful shout-out to Team DFC by showing such a strong commitment to this key Tri-Cities charity event.
