BC Children’s Hospital Pre-Gala Kick-Off Event

On March 7, 2020, BC Children’s Hospital Foundation will be auctioning off world-renowned contemporary artist Patrick Hughes’ Andy, Jeff, Damien at the 25th annual For Children We Care gala.
Since 1995, this signature gala has received tremendous support from the Chinese Canadian community, raising over $21 million to help safeguard the health of kids across BC.
To mark this milestone year, the gala’s long-time supporter Christian Chia, CEO of OpenRoad Auto Group, and his wife Carol Chia has generously donated this original Patrick Hughes work in support of BC Children’s Hospital.
This year’s gala will raise critical funds for BC Children’s Hospital’s world-class orthopedic team. Funds will help build a comprehensive research program that will advance the best care, treatments and surgical techniques for kids, and provide the critical equipment needed to continue operating on the front lines of innovation.
The advance bidding of Hughes’ masterpiece is just the first step of many in the gala’s efforts to help this leading group of experts in their quest to transform even more lives.
Bids received at the preview will be carried forward to the gala on March 7 where the live auction will conclude bidding.
