Like many of us, the healthcare world's philanthropic partners have been significantly impacted by COVID-19. Despite the challenges we have all faced, so many community-minded organizations continue to work together to find innovative ways to support healthcare across Alberta.
Their efforts have included many new fundraising initiatives, like Operation Frontline Impact, which consists of 39 foundations across northern Alberta dedicated to supporting our healthcare teams who have been fighting against COVID-19.
Together, the group has been extremely fortunate and grateful to have partnered with amazing organizations like the Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation, who have—for the second time—donated proceeds from the Oilers 50/50 to the cause!
From Jan. 25 – 27, the Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation held a progressive online 50/50 to once again support Operation Frontline Impact.
The raffle was highly successful, with the jackpot climbing to over $1.8 million and over $900,000 being awarded to the winner!
Operation Frontline Impact will contribute the proceeds of the raffle toward physical and mental health and wellness initiatives for our frontline staff.
We are incredibly grateful to our foundation partners in northern Alberta and the Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation for their continued contributions through this initiative.
Thank you for standing up for our frontline workers, for making a difference, and for showing that Albertans truly care.
