Magical Lights of Hope display returns to Vancouver this month

The holiday season is just around the corner, and the stunning Lights of Hope display will soon shine in downtown Vancouver.
Since 1998, St. Paul’s Foundation’s massive light display outside St. Paul’s Hospital has been an annual Christmastime tradition and fundraising campaign.
More than 100,000 lights and hundreds of shining stars recognizing the support of generous donors make up the Lights of Hope, which will be celebrated with a community celebration and fireworks on Wednesday, November 27.

According to St. Paul’s Foundation, donations to the campaign have totalled over $53.7 million throughout its history, with hundreds of thousands of patients and residents impacted by donors’ generosity. Donations can be made online.
