Leland and Thora Vance Fund Contributes $63,720 to the Wingham Hospital
The Wingham & District Hospital Foundation has received a grant of $63,720 from the Leland and Thora Vance Fund held at Kitchener Waterloo Community Foundation.
Leland and Thora Vance were long-time residents and business owners in Wingham. They cared deeply about the community and wanted to continue to support it even beyond their lifetimes. As such, they created an endowment fund with Kitchener Waterloo Community Foundation (KWCF). This donation to the Wingham & District Hospital Foundation is a disbursement from that fund.
This generous gift will go towards the replacement of IV pumps at the Wingham & District Hospital. It is currently a top priority of the hospital to upgrade the entire fleet of IV pumps which is made up of over 90 components. IV pumps are used on a daily basis and benefit many departments and patients with a wide variety of medical needs. This contribution by the Vance Fund will help patients get the medications they need and improve the flow of information throughout a patient’s hospital stay.
Everyone at the Wingham & District Hospital Foundation is grateful to BIA Chair Dave Tiffin, Reeve Bernie Bailey, and Lions Club President Richard Hall who serve on the committee for the Leland and Thora Vance Fund for supporting the hospital and for helping honour the legacy of the Vances by investing in quality medical care for the whole community.
