Look at those smiles! 😊

A big thank you to St. Marys Optometry for choosing the Foundation as the first organization to benefit from the proceeds of their very first campaign! 👓🩵

For every pair of lenses sold, $2 was donated to the Foundation, raising an incredible $353 to support local healthcare. 🏥👏

Every donation helps advance the Foundation’s mission to invest in local healthcare. When our community comes together, every dollar adds up and makes a meaningful impact! 🩵

Thank you, St. Marys Optometry, for giving back to our community and supporting local healthcare.

Winner not pictured.

Congratulations to Krishna Patel of London, who took home $3,690 in our September 50/50 draw! Her lucky ticket, rt-D-18898, was drawn on Thursday, Septmeber 24.

As we wrap up our 50/50 lottery, we want to extend our heartfelt thank you to everyone who has purchased a ticket and supported us over the past six years. Thanks to your generosity, lottery proceeds have helped fund a bariatric stretcher, an ice and water dispenser, and our capital campaign to renovate the East and West wings of St. Marys Memorial Hospital.

While this marks the end of our monthly 50/50 lottery for now, it doesn't mean goodbye forever! We're grateful for the suport our community has shown of the years, and we hope to bring the excitment of the lottery back again someday.

In the meantime, there are still plenty of way to support the Foundation. Every donation, big or small, makes a difference in supporting local healthcare, right here in our community.

A quick update from the Foundation 💙

Throughout September, our Foundation office will be operating on flexible hours, so we may not always have a team member available in person.

We’re still here and happy to help! You can reach us anytime at [email protected], and donations can continue to be safely left in the secure drop box at our office (located at the hospital).

Thank you for your understanding — and, as always, for your incredible support of local healthcare.
