Giving Back to BC Children’s Hospital: Help Us Support Kids Like Oliver

In 2025, our son Oliver spent three months at BC Children’s Hospital receiving life-saving and life-altering surgeries. It was one of the most difficult times our family has ever faced, but it was also a time when we witnessed incredible compassion, skill, and dedication from the people who care for children every single day.

Every doctor, nurse, specialist, and staff member at BC Children’s Hospital played a role in helping Oliver through his journey. Their expertise and kindness meant the world to our family, and we will always be deeply grateful for the care he received.

Because of them, Oliver had access to the best possible treatment when he needed it most.

Now, we want to give back.

We are raising funds in support of BC Children’s Hospital so that other children and families facing unimaginable challenges can receive the same world-class care that helped Oliver. Hospitals like this rely on community support to fund critical equipment, research, specialized programs, and patient care that change—and save—lives.

If you’re able to help, there are a few ways you can support this effort:

  • Donate to help fund life-saving treatment and programs

  • Share this fundraiser with friends and family

  • Help us spread awareness about the incredible work being done at BC Children’s Hospital

Every contribution, no matter the size, helps ensure that kids like Oliver continue to receive the care they need when it matters most.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for supporting this mission and for helping us give back to the hospital that gave our family so much hope.

Together, we can make a difference for children and families who need it most.

Oliver's first lengthening

Tuesday 21st Apr

Last week, Oliver had his first lengthening procedure at BC Children’s Hospital. He’ll need this procedure at least twice a year until he’s finished growing.

Before his visit, a Child Life Specialist spent time with him, helping explain what to expect and easing some of the anxiety around it. That support made a real difference for him—and for us.

Programs like this are made possible through events like Race for the Kids, which directly fund care that supports children and families when they need it most.

Today, donations are being matched up to $50,000. If you’re able, please consider contributing. Every bit truly helps.
