ESTEVAN - The St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation has released more details regarding its upcoming fundraiser, the Festival of Trees presented by Kingston Midstream.

The annual celebration of local health care and Christmas spirit is back this year, with some new changes.

The event will feature something for everyone as the holiday season approaches, all while raising funds for the hospital. Activities include corporate holiday opportunities, an Ultimate Sweepstakes Raffle, online auctions and an all-new Hometown Family Fun Day. Each activity will be taking place on multiple days from Nov. 15-25.

The Ultimate Sweepstakes Raffle will launch in mid-October and run for the duration of the Festival of Trees fundraiser.

The hospital foundation will also have a Christmas Headquarters that will be set up at the Estevan Market Mall, featuring Christmas displays, auction items, raffle prizes and the centralized location to pick up all kits and gift baskets.

The foundation encourages everyone to stop by to walk through the display and take part in the multiple ways of supporting local healthcare this Christmas season.

“We are very excited to be able to kick off the Christmas season once again for our community and really needed to find a way to still have our holiday event, but in a new and innovative way. Festival of Trees is not only a huge event for our community leading up to Christmas, but is also a major fundraiser for our hospital,” said hospital foundation executive director Breanne Van De Woestyne.

“We are looking to offer something for everyone and work with our supporters to continue to raise funds for new equipment and services at our hospital this year. We are asking our community to join in on these new ways of not only celebrating the holiday season, but supporting local healthcare right here at home.”

More information about the different fundraisers will be released in the coming weeks.

Festival of Trees has been a major fundraiser for the St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation since 2013, featuring a variety of holiday festivities. The festival has raised thousands of dollars to support the purchasing of new medical equipment at St. Joseph’s Hospital.
