WDMH
The holidays are almost here and that means the annual Judy Lannin Christmas Wish Tree tradition is underway.
“It’s the most wonderful time of the year – and the Wish Tree provides a special way to honour or remember family and friends with a gift to the WDMH Foundation,” explains Kristen Casselman, Managing Director. “And more good news. We will be lighting the giant tree in the hospital lobby this year. We hope you can join us!”
On Tuesday, December 12th at 4 pm, the WDMH Foundation will hold a tree lighting ceremony in the Winchester District Memorial Hospital (WDMH) lobby. Masks are required. It will also be live streamed on the WDMH Foundation Facebook page at www.facebook.com/wdmhfoundation.
Donors can donate online at https://www.wdmhfoundation.ca/onlinegiving/donation/campaign or call the Foundation office at 613-774-2422 ext. 6162. Names submitted with donations will be placed on ornaments and displayed on the giant tree in the hospital lobby.
Over the past 26 years, $1.216,000 has been given to the Wish Tree! Thank you to all the donors and the sponsors. What an amazing community we have! Proceeds go to the Family Care Fund ‘to support families just like yours’ and to help ensure that WDMH can continue to provide compassionate, excellent health care – close to home.
“Every year, we all have the opportunity to remember, reflect, and show appreciation and caring through this special program,” sums up Kristen Casselman. “We hope everyone can join us at the hospital or tune in from home to see the giant tree lit up and enjoy the entertainment.” Happy Holidays everyone!
