Each November, our community gathers for a weekend of friendship, hope and inspiration, to welcome the holiday season and support high-quality patient care. During the Skagit Regional Health Foundation’s Annual Festival of Trees, guests participate in an auction to bid on extravagantly decorated Christmas trees and unique and fun experiences to help support the Foundation’s annual patient care fundraising campaign.

This year’s event beneficiary is the  Skagit Regional Health’s Family Birth Center at Skagit Valley Hospital. Because we believe that every family deserves outstanding birthing services in a calm, relaxing and healing environment, the Skagit Regional Health Foundation has committed to raising $1.6 million to support this patient service.

Including gifts received at the Festival of Trees, campaign funds will help fund the redesign of the 21 single maternity care rooms, along with new safety and security upgrades.

Please join in the merriment at our annual Festival of Trees celebration! Click here for event details.

A special thank you to our Festival of Trees Co-Chairs Kris Wollan and Sandra Nootenboom and their committee of 20 community volunteers for creating a magical holiday event.
