Following the Easter holiday, Wawa's Lady Dunn Health Centre Foundation is asking residents to "spring ahead to better health care".
The foundation's annual spring campaign is now underway, and Foundation Assistant Thea Desgagne explains that a letter's been mailed out to residents, outlining some ways to make a donation.
Vice-Chair Susan Switzer notes the mail-out campaign is particularly important, given conditions of the last year.
Switzer adds the winter "Wish" campaign was a "huge success" - letting the Foundation purchase a washer/disinfector/sterilizer for the hospital's Medical Device Reprocessing Department - with the new campaign focusing on a new capital cause, though donors can also request their donation be directed to a specific need for the hospital's long-term care, cancer care, or palliative care.
The campaign runs until Mother's Day, May 9th.
