Our Mission & Vision
When you give your donation to the South Okanagan Similkameen (SOS) Medical Foundation, you are investing in better patient experiences.
Healthcare facilities throughout Keremeos, Oliver, Osoyoos, Penticton, Princeton and Summerland depend on all of us to support the care delivered in their communities. Thanks to you, the SOS Medical Foundation is able to respond to the greatest needs through purchasing medical equipment, funding programs, and enhancing the health care delivery infrastructure to elevate the patient experience.
