Through the continued investments made by our community the West Lincoln Memorial Hospital Foundation provides independent funding for medical equipment education and facility improvements The Foundation does not provide funds for operating expenses
As the new president of the Foundation I am serving at an exciting time in our history with the building of a new hospital on the horizon The necessary funds are in place plans for the building of the new hospital are ontrack and we know that the residents of Grimsby West Lincoln and Lincoln are fully behind us You can keep up to date on the status of the new hospital by going to the hospitals website on the New Hospital Update tab
With the recent funding changes through the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care our fundraising focus has shifted to filling the hospital our current one and our new one with the required new medical equipment You may have already attended one of our community information sessions and learned about the success of our fundraising campaigns to date Our current campaign Project Xray is a 36 M campaign to raise the funds necessary to equip our hospital with state of the art imaging equipment All new equipment purchased will be used at our current facility and moved to the new hospital once it is built We are in effect building the new hospital from the inside out You can get more information on Project Xray by going to the Foundations Project Xray campaign tab
We are fortunate to have a wonderful hospital in this community and it is with the support of you and many others that we can continue to support West Lincoln Memorial Hospitals mission to improve the health and quality of life of our communities Thank you for your commitment to our community hospital
We look forward to a long and bright future in partnership with the many donors who support our cause and in turn make West Lincoln Memorial Hospital a great facility for the residents of west Niagara
