Creating a legacy of excellent local health care

The Guru Nanak Dev Endowment Fund was established by the Giving Hearts Gala Committee with a five-year goal of raising $1 million.

The Fund will live in perpetuity as a permanent, invested pool of resources to generate reliable annual income to meet urgent needs in equipment, programs and services at Langley Memorial Hospital.

The 25 Founding Donors of the Guru Nanak Dev Endowment Fund each received a commemorative coin

Once the Fund reaches $1 million, Langley’s hospital teams will present their top priorities for funding each year to the Giving Hearts Gala Committee, which will determine how funds will be awarded to create the biggest impact on health care services, provided at Langley Memorial Hospital and in the community.
