A significant contribution is providing momentum for the Magnetic Moments MRI campaign at the Alexandra Marine and General Hospital.
HuronTel presented a cheque for $200,000 during an event in Lucknow on Friday, which brings the total raised to date to $2,596,089. Staff from HuronTel joined members of the Alexandra Marine and General Hospital Foundation for the presentation, marking another milestone in the community-driven campaign.
The money supports plans to bring MRI services to Huron County and the surrounding region, which creates local access to advanced diagnostic imaging. The new equipment will mean reduced wait times for patients, along with less time travelling for essential care.
"As we progress towards our $6,500,000 fundraising goal over two years, we are so grateful for HuronTel's outstanding commitment to giving back and supporting healthcare close to home. Gifts like this one show us how deeply the local business community cares about supporting health care infrastructure. The longstanding generosity of our local businesses is such an asset to the local health care system,” said Dr Tiffaney Kittmer, chair of the Magnetic Moments campaign.
The moment was celebrated in Lucknow, as 42 HuronTel staff and three board members presented AMGH Foundation board chair Laura Herman and Magnetic Moments cabinet member Ben Hogervorst with a $200,000 donation towards the MRI campaign.
