Projects of this scale are impossible without extraordinary volunteer dedication and community support. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the members of the Alexandra Marine & General Hospital Foundation, the Magnetic Moments campaign team, and all the generous donors and supporters whose contributions are helping bring MRI services to Huron County.

Time for a Tuesday morning update, as we approach our (initial) Magnetic Moments fundraising goal.

We have have been absolutely blown away by the community’s response to and support of the Magnetic Moments campaign. Raising $6,292,390.25 to bring an MRI machine to Huron County in 10 months was possible because of our generous community.

But, you’ve no doubt heard about tariffs, inflation, supply chain challenges. Perhaps they’ve impacted a recent construction project you’ve undertaken, your business, or you’ve felt it when filling up at the pumps.

Well, they are also impacting our Magnetic Moments campaign too.

On Wednesday, October 14, 2026, Jimmy Trieu, President and CEO of Huron Health System, presented a project and budget update to the Alexandra Marine and General Hospital Foundation’s Board of Directors and campaign cabinet, outlining the need for an additional $1,000,000 in fundraising support. This adjustment brings the campaign's total fundraising goal to $7,500,000 and reflects changing market conditions affecting project costs.

The good news is, even with this revised budget, we’re almost there. THANK YOU!

But not quite.

Please continue to support of the Magnetic Moments campaign. If you’re planning to attend or host a third-party event, please do so. Perhaps you’ve been thinking about making a donation, but haven’t yet. Now is the time. If you’re considering a gift of stocks as year end approaches, please continue planning accordingly.

We initially stated we have two years to raise the funds. But with your ongoing support, maybe we can get there sooner?

Mental health matters in every community, in every home, and at every stage of life.

In rural communities, connection matters deeply. Mental health care can look different when you live in a smaller community and that’s why the work happening here in our community matters.

Every day, our outpatient mental health team supports people through some of life’s most difficult moments. They listen without judgment. They provide care, connection and compassion. They work alongside people, their families, caregivers and community partners to help people find their way forward.

Our Community Mental Health Program is here for our community. Our team provides support to people experiencing mental health challenges, helping individuals navigate difficult times, connect with appropriate services and build the skills and supports they need to move forward. Whether someone is struggling today or simply recognizing that something has changed, reaching out is a strength and help is available. You don't have to wait until things become overwhelming to reach out.
