Sergio Cocchia and Robert Ho, both of West Vancouver, were given the Order of British Columbia, along with 10 other people from across the province in a ceremony at Government House.
Cocchia is a Vancouver-based entrepreneur who, along with his wife, has raised millions of dollars for charitable organizations through the Women's Media Golf Classic.
Ho is a philanthropist who has donated millions of dollars to health care institutions, including a donation of $10 million to Lion's Gate Hospital.
