In August, CQShines Foundation hosted its annual Charity Gala and it was nothing short of spectacular!
Hosted at the elegant Gladstone Entertainment Convention Centre, the event brought together a vibrant mix of community leaders, philanthropists, and passionate supporters, all united by a shared mission: to raise funds for Gladstone Hospital. The focus this year was on supporting the hospital’s acquisition of Australian-first virtual surgical technology, which promises to revolutionise patient care in our region. With this technology, we can bring world-class surgical care to Gladstone, improving outcomes for our patients and making our hospital a leader in regional healthcare.
We enjoyed a wide array of talented entertainment, incredible food, live and silent auctions, and inspiring messages from our speakers. The event would not have been possible without the support of our sponsors, local vendors, and community partners! We are so grateful.
As we celebrate the success of this year’s Gala, we are reminded that when a community comes together with a shared purpose, there is no limit to what we can achieve. Thank you to everyone who made this night possible—you are the heart of CQShines, and with your continued support, the future looks brighter than ever.
