ABOUT
THE EVENT

Join us for a night of celebration and fun as we mark 75 years of exceptional care at the Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital Fundraising Gala! This special event highlights decades of dedication to our community, and we invite you to be part of this unforgettable milestone. Your sponsorship will help fund the purchase of lifesaving medical equipment, ensuring that we continue to provide top-quality care to our community. 

This year’s 4th Annual Gala will be particularly meaningful as we celebrate the 75th anniversary of Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital’s inclusion in our community. It’s a time to reflect on our rich history while looking ahead to the exciting future of healthcare in our region. The evening will honor our past accomplishments, our ongoing commitment to the community, and our vision for the future — all while having a blast! 

Expect an evening filled with signature cocktails, a jazz quartet, a band that will help us dance the night away, plus exciting opportunities to win amazing prizes in auctions, raffles, and Mystery Boxes. The event will be a lively celebration with mingling, delicious appetizers, and a fun walk through the history of Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital. We’ve reserved the entire Garden Grove Retreat Center to create a unique experience, and we can’t wait to raise the bar this year. Join us as we celebrate, enjoy each other’s company, and set the tone for Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital’s next chapter in the community!
