Festival of Trees Begins | 2013

Some traditions start small.

And then they become something much bigger.

In 2013, the very first Festival of Trees brought our community together in support of local healthcare.

What started as a fundraising event quickly became a holiday tradition filled with generosity, celebration, and community spirit.

Decorated trees.
Shared moments.
A room full of people who care.

Year after year, Festival of Trees has helped fund vital equipment and initiatives at St. Joseph’s Hospital.

But more than that, it has brought people together around a shared purpose.

Because when a community gathers like this, incredible things happen.

STARS Helipad Opens | 2013

In critical moments, every second matters.

In 2013, a major step forward in emergency care arrived at St. Joseph’s Hospital with the opening of the hospital’s helipad.

This addition meant patients in urgent need of advanced care could be transported faster, connecting our community directly to life-saving services across the province.

Faster transfers.
Stronger emergency response.
Better outcomes when it matters most.

This wasn’t just infrastructure.

It was peace of mind for families across Southeast Saskatchewan.

Because of this community, care didn’t just stay close to home. It became more connected than ever before.

Milestone Moment: CT Scanner | 2016

In 2016, our community made history for healthcare in Southeast Saskatchewan.

Together, donors raised over $2 million to bring a CT Scanner to St. Joseph’s Hospital.

Before the CT Scanner arrived, patients often had to travel out of town for critical diagnostic imaging.

Because this community stepped up, thousands of patients have since been able to receive faster diagnosis and care right here at home.

🩷 Families avoided long drives.
🩷 Doctors gained faster answers.
🩷 Care became closer and quicker when it mattered most.

This was more than a piece of equipment.

It was proof of what happens when a community comes together to support local healthcare.

This milestone happened because of you.

And it’s just one of the many reasons we say:

Radiothon for Life | A Tradition of Giving

Every community has moments that define who they are.

For us, one of those moments began with a microphone, a story, and a simple ask.

The very first Radiothon for Life brought our community together in a powerful way - sharing stories, inspiring generosity, and rallying support for local healthcare.

People called in.
Businesses stepped up.
Families gave what they could.

And something incredible happened.

A tradition was born.

Year after year, our community has continued to show up by raising funds for critical equipment, supporting new services, and helping ensure care stays close to home.

This year, we are proud to celebrate our 15th annual Radiothon for Life.

Fifteen years of generosity.
Fifteen years of stories.
Fifteen years of impact.

Because of Radiothon, countless milestones have become possible.

And it all started with a community that believed they could make a difference, together.

Milestone Moment: A New St. Joseph’s Hospital | 1991

Healthcare in our community has always grown because people believed Estevan deserved it.

In 1991, a major milestone took place - the construction of the current St. Joseph’s Hospital building that continues to serve Southeast Saskatchewan today.

As the community grew and healthcare needs expanded, it became clear that a new, modern facility was needed to support patients, physicians, and healthcare services for the region.

The new hospital brought expanded space for patient care, new medical departments, and room for services that would continue to evolve for decades.

It was more than a new building.

It was a commitment to the future of healthcare in this region.

Today, this hospital remains the heart of care for thousands of people across Southeast Saskatchewan providing emergency services, diagnostics, acute care, and specialized programs close to home.

And just like every milestone before and after it, this step forward happened because a community believed in supporting local healthcare.

Every expansion.
Every new service.
Every piece of equipment.

It all builds on the foundation that came before.

Milestone Moment: The Sisters of St. Joseph's | The Beginning

Before the technology.
Before the expansions.
Before the thousands of patients served every year.

There were the Sisters of St. Joseph's.

In 1938, the Sisters of St. Joseph of Peterborough came to Estevan with a mission: to bring healthcare to a growing community in need. They built and opened the first St. Joseph’s Hospital after the previous local hospital had been destroyed by fire.

The hospital was a 40-bed, four-storey facility, built in just over five months and financed entirely by the Sisters themselves.

But they didn’t just build a hospital. They staffed it, ran it, and cared for patients.

For more than 55 years, the Sisters of St. Joseph's served the people of Estevan and Southeast Saskatchewan, expanding services, adding hospital wings, and helping shape the healthcare system our community relies on today.

Their work laid the foundation for everything that followed.

Every piece of equipment.
Every expanded service.
Every milestone.

It all began with a group of women who believed this community deserved care close to home.

And because of them, and because this community continues to give, that mission carries on today.

As we close out our MRI campaign and gear up for our annual Radiothon for Life, we are excited to launch our new campaign.

This hospital stands because this community chose to build it.

Because a family gave.
Because a business stepped up.
Because a neighbour said yes.

Every piece of equipment.
Every upgrade.
Every expanded service
is here because someone cared enough to make it happen.

For years, our community has shown up - quietly, generously, consistently -
so care could stay close to home.

That’s not luck.
That’s commitment.

This hospital isn’t just in our community.
It IS our community.

Stay tuned as we celebrate what we as a foundation and community have achieved for local healthcare right here at home.

It’s here!

Today the modular unit for the new MRI at St. Joseph’s Hospital was delivered and placed on site - a powerful visual reminder of what this community has made possible.

Every donation, every fundraiser, every act of generosity has helped move this project from an idea… to a real structure now sitting beside our hospital.

Soon this space will house the MRI that will serve patients from across southeast Saskatchewan, keeping care closer to home for thousands of people.

This moment belongs to the entire community!

We are incredibly thankful for the 1,200+ donors that came together to help bring MRI services to southeast Saskatchewan.

Every gift, big or small, played an important role in reaching our $6.5 million goal. This milestone wasn’t achieved by one person or one moment… it was achieved through the collective strength, generosity, and belief of an entire community.

To everyone who donated, shared our message, attended events, or supported in any way:
Thank you. You helped make history.

Together, we brought MRI services closer to home.

Together, we did 💙
