Cause

Since 1978, the Uplands Golf Club Annual Heart Tournament has raised more than $3.6 million for the Victoria Hospitals Foundation and funded leading-edge cardiac equipment for Royal Jubilee’s Heart Health program. Players, sponsors and donors have all helped make the Tournament the longest running, most successful charity tournament in BC.

As the two referral sites for specialized care for all Vancouver Islanders, over 200,000 of our community members receive cardiac assessments at Royal Jubilee and Victoria General hospitals, and approximately 700 cardiac surgeries are performed each year. Together, we can ensure cardiologists and care team members, as well as patients, have access to reliable, state-of-the-art technology.
