A private lunch was held at the Yacht Club of Monaco on Friday, 9 June 2017, in the presence of HRH Princess Caroline of Hanover, in her capacity as Chairperson of the Board of Directors of the Friends of the CHPG Foundation, the Minister of Health and Social Affairs, Didier Gamerdinger and the Director of the Princess Grace Hospital, Patrick Bini.

Orchestrated by Roger Shine, Chairperson of the Strategic Committee of the Friends of the CHPG Foundation, the event was in honour of the generous donor residents who have recently supported the Princess Grace Hospital through the Friends of the CHPG Foundation.

The occasion provided an opportunity to thank and pay tribute to donor residents, including Sir Stelios Haji-loannou, Daryl Foster and Hani Farsi.

As a reminder, the aim of the Friends of the CHPG Foundation, which was founded by Sovereign Order in 2014, is to enable generous patrons to support the implementation of innovative solutions to patient care at the Hospital. It enables donors from the private sector, who so wish, to contribute actively and in a practical way to the development of innovative technologies and the acquisition of state-of-the-art equipment.

In line with the advice of donor Lord Irvine Laidlaw (absent from photo), and with the support of the Board of Directors of the Friends of the CHPG Foundation, Roger Shine reminded those present that “The association’s project would not be possible without the contribution of these successful men and women, these generous philanthropists, to whom we pay tribute today.”

Daniela Boutsen of Boutsen Design personally oversaw the table setting for the special lunch, which took place in the yacht club’s Private Dinning Room.
