About QEH Yuletide
Thank you!
The Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH) Foundation’s annual Yuletide Gala Auction lit up the Delta Hotels by Marriot Prince Edward on Saturday evening, raising an extraordinary $409,221 to fund the GI Genius, a cutting-edge AI-powered system that enhances the detection of colorectal cancer.
Featuring an incredible array of items and experiences, this year’s auction had something to captivate everyone in the room. From exclusive Island getaways to beautifully crafted artisan pieces, the offerings showcased the generosity and talent of the community while fueling an exciting night of bidding.
To our sponsors, friends, attendees, and everyone who made this night possible—WE THANK YOU! The generosity and kindness we witnessed were heartwarming, reminding us of the profound impact made when people come together for a shared purpose.
Save the date! The 2025 Yuletide Gala Auction will take place on November 22, 2025

IN SUPPORT OF: PRIORITY MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FOR QEH endoscopy UNIT
Funds raised through the 2024 Yuletide Gala Auction will help support the purchase of priority medical equipment needed in the QEH Endoscopy Unit. Notably among them is the GI Genius, a state of the art AI system designed to assist doctors by identifying polyps during procedures.
The use of this advanced technology can boost the adenoma detection rate by 30%. This higher detection rate means more polyps are found and removed earlier, reducing the risk of them developing into cancer.
“We care for the patients we see every day and are dedicated to helping them live their healthiest and happiest lives. This new technology will enable us to enhance our level of care and advance cancer screening for Island residents.” — Dr. Jeremy Beck
