Mission

The BMP Foundation exists to provide the Brome-Missisquoi-Perkins Hospital with the latest in equipment, technology and training. Its primary objective is to encourage and enable dynamic community participation and support for the Hospital throughout the Brome-Missisquoi population.

History

The BMP Foundation was established in 1993 following a major capital campaign conducted in 1989-90.

Apart from its capital campaigns, the Foundation raises money as follows:

  • It receives donations from the general public, including gifts in memory of deceased persons.
  • It organizes fundraising activities of its own, including an annual car raffle and a Christmas mailing.
  • It works in partnership with community-based organizations that stage a variety of support activities including: the BMP Brunch & Dinner, the Owl’s Head Ski Challenge, the Owl Hoot Family Day, the Optimist Club Telephone Blitz, the Bromont Concert, the Classique BMP Golf Tournament, the BMP Bike-A-Thon and the Walk Against Breast Cancer.

Through such activities the Foundation currently provides the Hospital with close to $1,000,000 in new equipment each year.
