Foundation Gala
An Evening Filled With Sparkles & Smiles!
On Sept. 13, over 260 members of the community gathered for the Foundation Annual Gala in Willmar, themed Sparkles & Smiles to benefit the CentraCare – Dental Clinic.
Because of generous sponsors, donors, attendees, and volunteers, we were able to raise over $325,000!
The Foundation Annual Gala has a rich history of supporting the work of CentraCare – Rice Memorial Hospital. Since 1997, more than $4.4 million has been raised, benefiting the greatest patient needs for Hospice, Cancer Care, Cardiology, Dental Care, Rehabilitation Services, and Behavioral Health Services. We are filled with gratitude that this event has grown and, today, serves as the premiere fundraising event for CentraCare hospitals and clinics in west-central and southwest Minnesota.
Special thanks to Chappell Central, Inc. and the Pierce Family Foundation for their commitment to advancing local health care by being our 2024 Presenting Sponsors. And thank you to all others that contributed to the success of the Gala. We could not have done it without you!
