Burnaby Hospital – Burnaby, BC

Over a single weekend in June 2024, we installed FOUR Smilezones at Burnaby Hospital! The Smilezones will be in the ICU Waiting Room, Ambulatory daycare, and Maternity Clinic Exam Room. The Smilezones include fresh paint, colourful murals, and a Kids’ Sensory Table! 

Thank you to our generous donor, ITS Staffing Solutions for making this project possible!

“As a long-time supporter of Smilezone Foundation, I am honoured to help bring their incredible work to British Columbia for the first time,” said donor representative Tim White. “It’s truly rewarding to know that the two new Smilezones at Burnaby Hospital will brighten the lives of so many children and families. Together with the Thomson Family, Alberts Family and ITS Staffing Solutions, we believe in the power of a positive environment to make a difference, and we’re proud to play a role in Smilezone’s expansion and its continued impact across Canada.”

“We are incredibly proud to continue celebrating Smilezone openings in British Columbia, expanding our presence from coast to coast,” said Smilezone Foundation Co-Founder Scott Bachly. “With two new Smilezones at Burnaby Hospital, we continue to grow and bring smiles to children across Canada. Our mission to create comforting, joyful spaces for young patients now reaches British Columbia, thanks to the generosity of the White Family, Thomson Family, Alberts Family and ITS Staffing Solutions. We look forward to continuing our expansion and positively impacting more communities nationwide.”
