Help speed up breast cancer diagnosis for Langley women
Langley Memorial Hospital’s mammography clinic sees over 9,000 visits every year.
This fall, Langley Memorial Hospital Auxiliary and Langley Community Health & Hospital Foundation are partnering on a $1 million matching campaign to bring diagnosis mammography to Langley Memorial for the first time.
Every gift you make will be matched up to $500,000 by the Auxiliary, doubling your impact and ensuring Langley Memorial Hospital receives state-of-the-art technology.
Faster results. Clearer images. Fewer callbacks.
The future of mammography starts with you.
When Langley resident Anna found a lump in her breast, she expected a long, stressful wait for answers. Thankfully, her diagnosis moved quickly, helping save her life.
But there was a catch. Currently, Langley Memorial offers screening mammography only. Anna had to leave Langley to get diagnostic imaging - the first step on the way to care and treatment.
Today, many Langley women still face that same delay. They wait days or weeks for diagnostic mammograms in other communities, at one of the most frightening moments of their lives.
Langley residents now have an opportunity to help change that.
LCHHF’s $2.1 million Future of Mammography campaign will strengthen breast cancer screening, diagnosis and treatment at LMH.
Donor support will:
Replace an aging mammography machine with a state-of-the-art system that provides clearer images with lower radiation doses
Add three operating room tables for mastectomy and reconstruction surgery
Purchase pharmacy equipment for medication support
Supply doctors with a CT contrast injector to help them see tumours better
With this new equipment, LMH can provide both screening and diagnostic mammography in one place and improve access to excellent care for more Langley residents. For women who are anxious about their breast health, that means faster answers, fewer delays and care that stays close to home.
Donate today, and your gift will be matched!

Twins Cancer Fundraising
As cornerstone donors, Twins Cancer Fundraising and a $700,000 anonymous matching donor have charged the campaign with momentum early on.
“My brother Jamie and I started Twins Cancer Fundraising after losing our mother to breast cancer as teenagers,” says Chris Ruscheinski, Twins Cancer Fundraising co-founder. “We didn’t want other families to go through what ours did. Over the last 24 years of fundraising, we have found an army of friends who feel the same way and have joined in the fight. The Twins Cancer Fundraising Family is proud to support this campaign as it ensures women get fast, life-saving answers without added travel or stress. Our community needs this and we are excited to do our part in bringing it to Langley.”
