People's Choice Awards Sunshine Coast

The Sunshine Coast Healthcare Auxiliary can enhance the dollars you spend on healthcare by purchasing much-needed equipment and services for the care and comfort of patients. The Auxiliary participates in several activities ranging from knitting caps for newborn babies at Sechelt Hospital to distributing chemo comfort bags to patients. In 2018, they raised enough funding to equip and revamp the 2nd floor of the hospital wing. This hospital wing provides a transitioning space for patients awaiting placement at care facilities. You can support their continued efforts by becoming a member or donating.

Fills Good is a small business looking to make a big impact by reducing waste in homes and in the local landfill, which is nearly at its capacity. Environmental awareness and sustainability come first and foremost when curating their lineup of goods while making sure accessibility and affordability are still attainable for all. The idea is simple and efficient. Bring your own container, or participate in their container exchange program, and refill over and over again with earth-friendly soaps, cleaning products, and plant based foods. They are proud to feature many BC-owned companies who share a similar passion for the environment and provide eco-friendly, all-natural and non-toxic products, made with the highest quality ingredients.
