The Champagne Dinner & Auction gala has grown to be the Cowichan Valley’s premier fundraising event. Approximately 350 guests bid through silent and live auctions during a fun filled evening. Each year we receive fantastic donations of vacation and weekend getaways, dining and theatre excursions, golf packages, artwork, collectibles, jewelry, cash and many other diverse items!

Since the Gala’s inception in 1989 it has remained the Foundation’s major fundraising event. The 2025 gala raised approximately $340,000 (net) in support of medical equipment for Cowichan.
