Third Annual Kendall Smith-Trimm fundraiser collects $35K for CHEO

The third annual Kendall Smith-Trimm Caring for Kids fundraiser took place on Sept. 12, honouring the memory of the namesake, who passed away in 2023 after battling bone cancer. The event brought in $35,000 for the Family Assistance Program and Child Life Program at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO), and was attended by 300 guests. The money will help cover some costs of families seeking treatment at the hospital, while also supplying medical play materials to help take the fear out of procedures for the child.
