Visions’ Impact
For 29 years, funds raised at Visions have gone directly towards purchasing equipment for Royal Jubilee and Victoria General hospitals.
In 2019, Visions raised funds to purchase priority, leading-edge imaging equipment for Royal Jubilee and Victoria General hospitals. This powerful equipment includes a CT scanner, 3T MRI, and ultrasounds. With more than 275,000 medical imaging procedures performed at Royal Jubilee and Victoria General hospitals annually, it supports decision-making and quality care for Vancouver Island residents. A remarkable testament to the generosity of our guests, sponsors, and donors, we exceeded our original goal of $850,000 and raised a record-breaking $1 million.
Thanks to hundreds of generous leaders in our community, our hospitals have benefited in a variety of areas of care:

“We look forward to joining our community once again in 2022 to honour our caregivers, and to raise funds to support their vital work. The 30th anniversary of Victoria’s premiere fundraising gala event is an incredible milestone, and we believe it’s important we celebrate our giving community together.”
