I'm Helping Kids Be Mighty

As the only hospital in BC devoted exclusively to kids, BC Children’s provides the specialized care that seriously ill kids need to fight their health battles. 

Amazing progress has been made in improving children’s health care. But the fact is, there’s still more to do when it comes to taking on the biggest health threats facing our kids. 

Your donation to my fundraising page will help advance care for kids across the province and support experts at BC Children’s Hospital in their quest to conquer childhood illnesses. 

Thank you for your support.

THANK YOU

Saturday 8th Nov
Well, our Finale was a hit.  The weather scared us a bit but it cooperated and we saw hundreds of happy faces.  We are so grateful for everyone that came to help out, donated candy, donated funds to the hospital, volunteered, help with make up, hand out candy, donate supplies and help with building.  Thank you to our family and friends for always supporting our event.  We live in an amazing community.

Thank you to the de Balinhard family for allowing us to honor their son, Chase.  We know it was a hard night as this was his favorite holiday.  We hope that there was some comfort in knowing that he touched not only our lives but everyone in the community.  His spirit will always live on.

Halloween 2025 - The Finale

Monday 15th Sep

Our names are Shane and Stacey Yarwood and our family (and amazing neighbours) hold a Spooktacular Event at our home every Halloween night in the Clayton neighbourhood to raise funds for BC Children’s Hospital.  We are proud to say this is our 16th year and it has become an event that everyone looks forward to!!  We have an amazing neighbourhood and have many homes that go “all out” in decorating to make it an exciting and fun night for the families.  We chose this foundation as our nephew was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer in 2010 and received amazing support and treatment by the entire staff at the hospital. 

 

After much thought and consideration, we have decided as a family that this will be our final year.  We have all gotten older and we feel it’s time to start supporting this amazing cause in different ways.  We are extremely sad but know that it’s time.

 

As many people know, we lost an important member of our community this year - one who loved Halloween just as much as we did.  His name is Chase de Balinhard.  He was a 15 year old boy filled with life, love, enthusiasm, creativeness, compassion, spunk and a few swear words.  He deeply loved his family, friends, cars, music, kayaking, cats, Halloween and Terry Fox.  He wanted to help change the world.  With permission from his parents, we are honoring Chase’s memory and dedicating our final year to this amazing young man.  We are honored to have known him, even if it was for a short time.  He acted in our haunted house one year and scared the “you know what” out of them.  We will always be grateful for that.


As this is our 16th year and Chase would have been 16 this year, we felt it was fitting to set our goal at $16,000.

Thank you to my Donors

My kid volunteered a few times with your haunted house through her association with the Inter-A Program. She had a blast and we all enjoyed your cunningly crafted haunted house and are thrilled to have been able to support Children’s hospital in such a fun way. Thanks to you and yours for the hard work you have but into doing this for so many years.

I was one of Wakelin's volunteer scare actors for a couple years, and I'm so glad I got to be a part of this! Everyone was super nice, I had a blast, and I'm happy I was able to help out for such a cause.
