The roots of Nature’s Essence run deeply in Richmond.

When staff at the family-run natural health store was deciding how to celebrate their 20th anniversary in business in 2017, they decided to commit $100,000 towards Richmond Hospital Foundation’s Act Now campaign. This fall marks the final donation to that initiative of $20,000.

Supporting neighbours and families with their wellness needs is the team’s mandate at Nature’s Essence, and they credit the Richmond community for their success and ability to expand the business globally. While that includes multiple retail stores in B.C., Richmond continues to be where the family feels most connected and at home.  

“While this past year and a half has been challenging for many families and businesses, it has also solidified our commitment to health care in the community, specifically in Richmond,” says Raymond Lin, owner and general manager of Nature’s Essence. “We are proud to make a contribution towards the new Yurkovich Family Pavilion at Richmond Hospital, an essential facility that will serve our family, staff, and clients.”

Both Lin and his son have received care at Richmond Hospital in the past and are thankful for the expertise and compassionate care provided by the health care teams. With this recent donation, Raymond looks forward to ensuring a high calibre of care continues to be available for the Richmond community.

“Nature’s Essence has been a loyal supporter of Richmond Hospital Foundation since 2017. Just as Richmond Hospital Foundation strives to build a better and healthier Richmond, Nature’s Essence aspires to contribute to a bright, healthy future. We are so grateful for their dedication to health and generous donation towards the future of health care,” says Candace Hernandez, vice-president of Richmond Hospital Foundation. “The new Yurkovich Family Pavilion at Richmond Hospital will enable our health care teams to provide the best in care, for more people, close to home.”

Over the past 34 years, Richmond Hospital Foundation has raised over $120 million to help fund vital medical equipment, improvements in patient care services and upgraded facilities. Our goal is to inspire joyful giving within our community to build a better and healthier future for Richmond.
