Here are all the events coming up that you can join in on to support the Working Wonders campaign for Surgical Excellence!
Recycle for a Cause
Support patient care at Saint John Regional Hospital year-round by recycling your bottles through our partnership with local recycling and redemption centres!
Braaaap for Boobs
Braaaap for Boobs is an annual snowmobile run in the Kingston Peninsula area in support of The Erin Appleby Breast Health fund. Established in memory of Erin Appleby, who bravely lost her battle with breast cancer in 2006 at the young age of 30. Funds help local women with expenses during their breast cancer treatment, so they can concentrate on what matters, their health.

Race by-the-sea Dragon Boat Festival
- September 19, 2026
We’re thrilled to continue our partnership with the Saint Andrews Paddling Club for the 2026 Race by-the-Sea Saint Andrews International Dragon Boat Festival! After two incredible years supporting a charity, the festival is once again partnering with the Saint John Regional Hospital Foundation to directly in support of mental health programs for local cancer patients and their families in Charlotte County and the Saint John area.
Over the past two years, more than 300 paddlers have rallied together, raising over $48,000 in total to support mental health initiatives
The Big Band Benefit
-
May 16, 2026
Saint John’s biggest names will be bringing the house down for a spectacular night of big band magic in support of the New Brunswick Heart Center. The finest musicians, business people, and politicians will take the stage in sharp suits and ties, delivering electrifying big band arrangements of all-time classics- think “R.E.S.P.E.C.T.,” “Route 66,” and “Build Me Up Buttercup” like you’ve never heard them before. This isn’t just a concert- it’s a night of nostalgia, energy and community, where every seat in the house becomes a sing-along. Dress up, show up, and help us raise money for a cause that truly matters- because a night this good is even better when it’s for the heart.
