The AdventHealth Wauchula Foundation invites you to RSVP for their Topping Out Celebration fundraiser on February 4 at the new hospital location. The celebration will feature a dinner by The Hughs Brothers, live cake auction and inspirational patient testimonial, as well as a signing of a beam that will be built into the new hospital. Tickets and sponsorships start at $50 for this special event and are available through the Foundation Office by calling Call863-402-5525.
All funds raised at the Topping Out Celebration, also known as their Annual Boots and Pearls, will benefit the Florida Hospital Wauchula Advancing the Legacy campaign. This $2 million fundraising campaign will help offset building expenses of the new state-of-the-art hospital. The new Wauchula facility is currently under construction at 735 South 5th Avenue and expected to open in December 2017.
