September 18, 2018 Foundation Launches Ambitious Fundraiser to advance Vic’s Neo-natal Unit.
The Victoria Hospital Foundation is thrilled to officially launch their annual campaign for the Victoria Hospital.
This year marks the 13th anniversary for the Give a Little Life Radiothon, a 12-hour live broadcast from the lobby of the Vic Hospital on all the Jim Pattison Broadcast Group stations.
The event takes place on Friday, December 7th at the Victoria Hospital and kicks off a multi-year campaign with an end goal of raising 2.2 million to expand and upgrade the hospital’s Level 2 Neonatal Unit for our sickest babies.
Currently, our unit is a crowded 357 square feet with medical gases to manage only 4 sick babies at a time. With a growing number of sick or premature babies being born and kept in Prince Albert, the time is now to dramatically advance our nursery to provide the right space and equipment here at home.
