On Saturday, November 26th, 2022, the Markham Stouffville Hospital (MSH) Foundation hosted its inaugural the Fortune Ball Gala at the Hilton Hotel in Markham. Six hundred guests attended a sumptuous dinner and dance event that celebrated modern Chinese culture with elegant charm and spectacular entertainment.
The MSH Foundation aims to promote community pride within the local Chinese-Canadian population and inspire Chinese business and philanthropic leaders to help bring abundant blessings to MSH through their generous contributions, and $550,000 had been raised at the date of the Gala!
We, Fête Chinoise, also donated copies of our magazine at the event. We hope that our contributions brightened the guests' time there.

Chinese culture values symbolism. On important occasions like the wedding banquet, the ingredients used are chosen with care, and each dish carries different meanings. A typical Chinese wedding banquet menu includes either ten or twelve dishes, symbolizing "full and perfection" or implying that the couple will have happiness throughout the twelve months of the year. For this special feature, we invited Rovey Chinese Catering and Private Dining, to demonstrate twelve classic Chinese wedding banquet courses and introduce the meaning behind each dish.
