CASCO’s 24th Annual Gala –
Time and Time Again

CASCO and The Road to $1 Million

Thank you for being a vital part of our mission to support CHEO, the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario. Your presence tonight is more meaningful than words can express. You are the very reason we can gather here, united in our commitment to making a difference in the lives of children who depend on CHEO for life-altering care.

With your support, we are well on our way to reaching our ambitious goal of raising $1 million. This incredible milestone will directly benefit the young patients and their families who rely on CHEO.

As we celebrate this evening, we urge you to continue your generous contributions. Every dollar you give brings us one step closer to achieving our fundraising target and ensuring that the children of our community receive the best care possible. Your compassion and generosity make a profound impact, and together, we can create a brighter future for these young lives.

Thank you for being part of this remarkable journey.
