Tiny But Mighty - Byron's Big Thank You

Some stories remind us what true strength looks like.

Byron Hemmings was born 12 weeks early, weighing just 479 grams - smaller than half a bag of sugar. His tiny body faced battles most of us will never know.

Against all odds, Byron survived - thanks to the dedication, skill, and care of the incredible doctors and nurses in the NICU & PICU.

Now, it’s time to say thank you.

Tiny But Mighty - Byron’s Big Thank You is a heartfelt luncheon and fundraiser celebrating the real-life heroes in scrubs who make miracles happen every day.

Join us for an unforgettable afternoon of:

• Delicious food & drinks - chef-curated meals with a 2-hour drinks package

• Live music & entertainment - acoustic singer & DJ Shae Jackson (aka Beverly Thrills)

• Heartwarming stories - celebrating courage, resilience, and community

• Silent auction & raffle - all proceeds go to Life’s Little Treasures Foundation

• Networking & connection - meet like-minded community members and local businesses

• Thoughtful guest goodie bags - sustainable and full of surprises

Together, we’ll raise funds to bring colour, comfort, and joy to the medical teams who gave Byron his future.
