SCK Health will proudly partner with RCB Bank for the 3rd year to present the 2024 SCK Health Foundation Gala. The Presenting Sponsor makes a donation of $10,000 to the Foundation. The event will take place on Saturday, March 2, 2024, in the beautiful Burford Theater.
The previous two years the Gala has brought almost $200, 000 to the Foundation. The goal for 2024 is $100,000. This year’s push is for funds to provide Physician Recruitment dollars to bring in new doctors to practice at SCK Health.
There will be some new twists to the 2024 event. There will be a live auction with 20 items for attendees to bid on. Included will be trips, furniture, jewelry, and experiences. One of the changes this year will be the silent auction of 30+ items which will be offered on-line through the assistance of Theurer Auction of Wellington. This will give those that are not able to attend the Gala the opportunity to bid on some fantastic items and packages to support the cause. Be watching our Facebook page for details on the silent auction. The auction proceeds for 2024 are again being matched up to $10,000 by a generous gift from L.G. Pike Construction.
As guests arrive, they will have the opportunity to have a professional photo taken by Gabby Marie Photography. These images will be available on the Foundation Facebook page the following day.
Hydrangeas and lilies will adorn the dining room with the accents of spring colors. Table sponsors will be invited to take the floral arrangement as they leave. It will be a beautiful evening as guests will be served a delicious prime rib dinner. Former KSOK DJ Shane Farley will be Master of Ceremonies. Acoustic dinner music will be provided by Larry Newsome.
Tables of 8 guests have been sold. “We are very encouraged by the sale of Gala tickets this year. 16 of the 20 tables have already been sold to businesses and individuals who support the event by purchasing the table of 8 and then inviting guests.” commented Pam Crain, SCK Health Foundation Director. “We still have a couple of tables available for sponsorship as well as some individual tickets. “
