On Thursday, May 16th, 2019, the Northern Lights Foundation will be hosting a Gala to raise money and support local children fighting life threatening illnesses. Held at the Harborside Ballroom at the DECC, guests will be served a meal, enjoy a brief program, and explore many opportunities to support the Northern Lights Foundation with both a live and silent auction.
The Northern Lights Foundation was first started by Dr. Ken Larson, DDS in 2006. In the fall of 2014, Dr. Larson’s son Michael established a branch in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota. The mission of this organization is to provide financial support to the families of children who have been diagnosed with a life threatening illness. There are several ways to contribute to this cause, including donating to the Northern Lights Foundation through their website: http://northernlightsfoundation.org/.
Mount Royal Dental is one sponsor of many for this elegant event, and we are proud to stand by such a wonderful organization. The Northern Lights Foundation has raised over $400,000 in the past thirteen years, and have given grants to over 180 families in the Northland. Families who receive these grants may use the money for medical bills, travel cost, or whatever else they may need.
