Bonnyville council has voted in favour of being the presenting sponsors for the Bonnyville Health Foundation Gala.
The request was made to council that the town become a presenting sponsor for $25,000.
“All the money goes right back into the hospital that they raise, really it’s an investment to turn that $25,000 into quite a bit, it’s usually what, half a million that they raise,” said Coun. Byron Johnson. “That’s a small part to get that to help improve the initiatives that they do in the hospital, all the money does stay in the hospital.”
The event doesn’t take place until 2025, the health foundation is already putting together sponsorship packages and advertising materials for the gala. The town was the presenting sponsor during the previous gala.
The 2025 operating budget has not been approved a motion was required to earmark these funds.
