Health and Fitness : RECORD BREAKING FUNDRAISER!

Tree of Lights

This year the Cardiopulmonary Departments were able to raise $5780 for the Virginia Gay Hospital Tree of Lights fundraiser. Our donation to the foundation will aid in supplying our patients with the best technology available to provide the most excellent care possible. Each year we strive to raise one more dollar than the year prior. We are happy to say that we surpassed our goal again this year! With the support of our department, local business, and other generous donations we had 40 total items up for bid. We are lucky to have Edward Jones again sponsor our tree walk for the fourth year in a row! We are so very grateful to all of the following for their support and generosity.

Weren’t able to make a bid but still want to give to this important cause? Contact Michael Timmermans, VGH Healthcare Foundation Director by calling 319-472-6375.
