Langley Community Health & Hospital Foundation

What Langley Community Health & Hospital Foundation does

Langley Community Health & Hospital Foundation is a registered Canadian charitable foundation (Business No: 13389 2638 RR0001), established in 1985 and headquartered in Langley, British Columbia. As Langley's only foundation solely dedicated to community health and hospital services, it raises, manages, and deploys philanthropic capital in support of Langley Memorial Hospital and adjacent community health programs including Foundry Langley (a youth wellness hub for ages 12-24), the Langley Child and Youth Advocacy Centre, and the Aspire seniors housing development. The organization was rebranded from Langley Memorial Hospital Foundation to its current name in 2025 to reflect its broadened community-health scope. It is governed by an independent Board of Directors and supported by approximately 102 staff, with executive leadership transitioning to Cathy Wiebe in 2026 following Heather Scott's retirement.

The Foundation's revenue model is entirely philanthropic: individual donations (including monthly giving), legacy/bequest giving, securities gifts, corporate sponsorships, and signature special events (Electric Gala, DRIVE Gala, Giving Hearts Gala, Gone Country Jamestown, Sports Injury Month, Staff 50/50 Lottery). Its go-to-market is community-led and event-driven, leveraging grassroots third-party fundraisers, long-tenured service-club partnerships (TB Vets, multiple Lions Clubs, Township of Langley Firefighters, Drive for the Cure, Cedar Rim Nursery), and a digital channel mix spanning website, email, social, and earned media with the Langley Advance Times. Distribution of funds flows as direct grants to identified healthcare priorities, with the current $25 million three-year Future of Health Care campaign allocating $2.1 million to diagnostic mammography, $2 million to surgical equipment, and additional capital to youth, seniors, and respiratory programs.

Underlying technology is non-proprietary on the Foundation side: it uses Squarespace for its web presence, Microsoft Forms for staff lottery registration, and Rafflenexus for the Jamestown 50/50 raffle. The notable AI/medical-technology asset the Foundation helped deploy is the GI Genius computer-vision colonoscopy system across 12 Fraser Health sites including Langley Memorial, which highlights polyps in real time. Operationally, the Foundation also developed Aspire, a non-profit seniors-only market rental building across from the hospital with 30% of units priced below market, structured via a limited partnership to preserve charitable status while generating self-sustaining rental revenue.
