Thank You | Wingham & District Hospital Foundation

2023 Radiothon Exceeds Goals

The Wingham & District Hospital Foundation has successfully exceeded their goal for the 2023 CKNX Healthcare Heroes Radiothon. The goal for the event was to raise $70,000 towards endoscope reprocessors for the OR. Thanks to donations received before, during and after the event over $80,000 has been raised for that project which means additional equipment can also be funded to improve care in the operating room.

The Radiothon continues to be essential to maintaining an up to date modern hospital to care for our community. A big thank you for continuing the keep this invaluable tradition going. We consider everyone who supports the Radiothon to be a true healthcare hero!

Our doctors, our nurses, the digital imaging department, and the rest of the staff at the hospital provide that compassionate care that everyone looks for when they walk into their local hospital. And, I think we’ve got one of the best local hospitals in Southwestern Ontario.

I donate in memory and in honour of my Mom and Dad. I am sure they would be thrilled to realize that our family has continued giving, but more importantly, hopefully encourage more people to donate to the Wingham & District Hospital Foundation. All three of us, at one time or another, received outstanding care at the hospital when we were patients. We have a strong connection with the hospital! I know the community feels very fortunate to have a local hospital – which is an excellent one – as it plays such an important part in everyone’s lives.
