As announced on May 25 and reported here, NFS made a donation to Northumberland Hills Hospital of $5000. (As patrons know, donations are possible when there is a surplus of funds). Further to that announcement, Rhonda Cunningham, Executive Director at the Hospital’s Foundation, was at the screening of Familiar Touch on September 21. Rhonda spoke about how the donation was contributing to the purchase of Hospital Equipment. This includes a new MRI and sterilising equipment and more. She also listed some hospital statistics including that last year, there were over 500 babies born at the hospital and over 40,000 visits to the emergency room.
But most of all, Rhonda expressed gratitude for the NFS generosity (photo at right).
