Today is GivingTuesday and our radio station is matching donations to the Renfrew Victoria Hospital Foundation.
Executive Director of the Hospital Foundation Patti Dillabough says this year in addition to tree of lights ceremony there’s a festival of trees event at the healing garden.
Dillabough says every year they pick a specific goal for GivingTuesday and this year money raised will go to purchase a second fluid and blanket warmer for the operating room.
Dillabough adds in January the Renfrew Victoria Hospital will expand operating and surgical services. Funds from the 32nd annual Tree of Lights Campaign will go towards the purchase of a state-of-the-art Tomosynthesis Mammogram Machine. Donations can be made online here.
The 2022 Tree of Lights ceremony will be on Friday (December 2nd) starting at 6:00pm at the Renfrew Victoria Hospital Healing Garden.
