Light the Night

Whatcom Hospice Foundation Gala Auction


The 2023 Light the Night Under the New York Skyline Gala Auction will be held on Saturday, November 11, 2023 at the Four Points by Sheraton in Bellingham, WA. The event will feature both live and silent auctions, a dessert dash, and an eventful program hosted by longtime Hospice friends, Gaye Godfrey and Dave Walker.


Last year's Light the Night Under the Sea Gala Auction raised a record-breaking $568,545 to support excellence in end-of-life care. It was truly a memorable and impactful event in support of the Whatcom Hospice program. Your support helps Whatcom Hospice caregivers continue to provide compassionate care for our family, friends and neighbors when they need it most.
