Emergency Department Campaign

Emergency Department Campaign

Our Goal

We currently have a goal to raise $500,000 to support the Emergency Department, ensuring it has the critical equipment and resources needed to provide lifesaving care when every second counts. But beyond this, we need to make sure our local hospital receives the funds it needs to buy new equipment, expand services, and complete facility upgrades that go beyond government support.

We must recognize that our hospital is more than just a building—it’s a lifeline for the health and well-being of our loved ones. When we invest in our local hospital, we invest in our children, our parents, our friends, and ourselves. It is a testament to the strength of our community, and it shows how together, we can all do our part to keep healthcare close to home.
