Lloydminster Region Health Foundation CEO, Stephanie Munro, was bowled over by a whopping $100,000 charitable donation from the Rural Municipality of Britannia council.
RM Reeve, John Light, presented the cheque to Munro on behalf of the RM’s council on Monday to be utilized by the foundation “as they see fit” as council put it.
“The Lloydminster Region Health Foundation is overwhelmed by the continued support of the RM of Britannia,” said Munro at the RM office on 47 St.
“We are sincerely thankful to the council for acknowledging the value and hard work our organization does to enhance health care for all residents within the region.”
In turn, Light says the RM council appreciates the work the foundation does and continues to do for the people within the RM and surrounding areas.
“Thank you for all the Lloydminster Region Health Foundation’s work in providing excellence and innovation for health care service in Lloydminster,” said Light.
Munro calls the cheque an ‘extremely generous donation’ to be utilized by their greatest needs fund to purchase enhanced equipment and resources for the community and region in a timely and efficient manner.
“We often get requests, whether it’s from the hospital or continuing care centres or anywhere in the community for enhancing healthcare,” explained Munro.
She says the donation by the RM council means the funds are on hand when those large healthcare requests come in.
“We are extremely grateful for the community collaboration that we have with them,” said Munro.
