LDHC Foundation Making Painting Draw, Launching Holiday Wish Campaign

The Lady Dunn Health Centre Foundation's wrapping up one fundraiser - and launching another.

Foundation Coordinator Alisha Allin explains today is the draw for a lovely piece of local art.

Tickets for the draw sold out within two weeks of the painting's unveiling at last month's High Tea, more than a month before today's draw date.

That's not all for the Foundation, however, as Foundation Chair Susan Switzer explains today marks the launch of the annual Wish campaign, which also means a familiar sight in the hospital lobby.

Switzer thanks Canadian Tire Wawa for helping by offering a new tree at a substantial discount, with the campaign running through the holiday season, in support of various capital needs at the hospital - she also notes next Tuesday, November 28th, is "Giving Tuesday", with people able to donate to the Foundation as part of that initiative through the Foundation's web page.

The Foundation's also part of the ongoing Split the Pot Lottery - which involves 21 other hospital foundations - there's a deadline of midnight Thursday night for the final Early Bird draw, splitting $20,000 between 2 winners, while the deadline for the growing grand prize draw is 11:59 pm the following Thursday, November 30th - tickets for that are available at splitthepot.ca
