Lucknow & District Kinsmen Make Annual Gift To Wingham Hospital

The Lucknow and District Kinsmen have donated an extra $10,000 to the Wingham and District Hospital Foundation.

The money comes from the Kinsmen's annual fundraising events such as Strawberry Summerfest and Music in the Fields.

The donation will go toward the major hospital redevelopment project, and is on top of the previous $250,000 already pledged to the Our Hospital our Future Campaign.

The Lucknow & District Kinsmen have also contributed $10,000 to both the Goderich and Kincardine Hospital Foundations.

Kinsmen spokesperson Joe Carter hopes that these donations will “inspire others to think of their local Hospital during this giving season.”
