Third Party Events

🤝 Host a Fundraiser for Healthcare

Support Local Health – Your Way

At the Central Northeast Health Foundation, we welcome and appreciate community-led fundraising efforts that support our mission to improve healthcare across Central and Northeastern Newfoundland.

From snowmobile races to cookie campaigns, third-party events are a vital part of our success—and we couldn’t do it without you!


🎉 Amazing Community Events That Support Us

Here are just a few incredible initiatives organized by local groups:

  • 🏁 Fly Your Car in Gander & SnoDrag
    Organized by Sideways Motorsports, these thrilling motorsport events take place each June and winter in Gander.
  • 🍪 Tim Hortons Smile Cookie Week
    Hosted by Tim Hortons Gander, usually held in May, with proceeds from every cookie supporting local healthcare.
  • 🎿 Lakeside Loppet
    A winter cross-country ski event by the Airport Nordic Ski Club, supporting the Foundation through healthy community fun.
  • 🏃‍♂️ Jim’s Relay Buddies
    An annual fundraiser led by Jim George and his relay team, who gather pledges from generous supporters each year—all to enhance healthcare in our community.
  • 🍔 Gander Burger Battle
    Held each October, local restaurants go head-to-head as they create their signature burgers for the chance to win People’s Choice and Judge’s Choice. Even better, $1 from every burger sold at participating locations is donated to the Central Northeast Health Foundation, helping support healthcare in our community.

These events—and the people behind them—are making a real difference for patients, residents, and families in our region.
