Rutland Regional’s Green Mountain Gala Returns May 20, 2023

After a three-year hiatus, Rutland Regional's signature fundraising event is back!

On Saturday, May 20, 2023, Rutland Regional Medical Center will host its signature fundraising event, the Green Mountain Gala after a three-year hiatus due to COVID-19. The Gala will be held at the Southside Steakhouse, and will feature fabulous food, including hand-crafted tapas and cuisine stations, and dancing to one of Vermont’s hottest bands, A House on Fire.

Proceeds from the evening will support the Infusion Services Expansion campaign to expand the hospital’s infusion services program.

More and more, hospital and community providers are utilizing medications that are given via infusion to help manage several diseases, such as asthma, COPD, Crohn’s, multiple sclerosis, and complex infections. The demand for infusion services at Rutland Regional has dramatically increased, outgrowing the current infusion space. As a result, the hospital will be creating a new space specifically for infusion care which will allow more patients to have improved access to infusion services in a more comfortable space for their treatments.

Over the next several months, the Rutland Health Foundation, the fundraising department at Rutland Regional, will work to raise $300,000 to support the cost of expanding infusion services, with $100,000 of that goal slated to be raised through the Green Mountain Gala.

Since 2003, thanks to the generosity of sponsors and guests, the Green Mountain Gala has raised more than $745,000 for vital healthcare initiatives at Rutland Regional Medical Center and in our community.

This year’s Gala Committee of dedicated volunteers includes Carolyn Gregory, Laura Zmurko and Shannon Maass who have been instrumental in all aspects of planning for this very special event. The hospital is incredibly excited to bring back the Gala. We look forward to the opportunity to bring friends and supporters together for a fun evening filled with great food, music, and celebration to benefit Rutland Regional Medical Center.
