UHN Foundation hosted the 12th annual UHN Diwali – A Night to Shine, presented by Sprott on Saturday, October 5, 2024 at Beanfield Centre. This sold-out event brought together nearly 600 guests to celebrate the vibrant South Asian festival of lights and the role women play in driving medical innovation across UHN. The evening was emceed by Sangita Patel and showcased South Asian culture, featuring live entertainment, exquisite cuisine, and a spotlight on UHN’s first ever all female transplant team.
Last year marked the final year of UHN Diwali – A Night to Shine. It was an incredibly successful event raising more than $15 million for health care, research and innovation at UHN since 2011. We are incredibly proud of what we have accomplished and are grateful to end on a high note with our final gala raising a record-breaking $2 million for UHN’s most urgent health care needs. With the conclusion of UHN Diwali, we are excited to share that we will be redirecting our efforts to a new UHNITED gala event in the spring of 2026 that will allow us to continue the meaningful impact on innovative and life-changing health care at UHN.
