Upcoming Fundraisers
Fundraisers offer a fun way to get involved while helping improve health care in Central and Eastern Oregon. Patient lives are touched by your financial gifts to St. Charles Foundation. We are blessed to be the recipient of many community fundraisers held on our behalf such as "Riders for a Cure", hosted by Mt.

Saints Buckaroo Ball

The St. Charles Foundation celebrated 14 years of supporting local health care through the Saints Buckaroo Ball and would like to thank the contributors and volunteers who have made this a premier Central Oregon event. Saints Buckaroo Ball will help fund programs and services throughout Cascade Healthcare Community with a special emphasis on Mother and Child services.
The higlight of this year's Ball was the equestrian demonstration held during the cocktail hour. The exhibition was organized by Pam Steinke of St. Charles Bend and featured outstanding performances from talented high school equestian competitors.
This was followed by a sophisticated barbeque dinner catered by Tate and Tate, a live auction and country music featuring performers, Coyote Creetk.
