Lucknow & District Kinsmen Help WDH Foundation Reach Radiothon Goal Submitted On November 12, 2014 Conor McDonagh of the Lucknow & District Kinsmen visited the Wingham & Dis- trict Hospital to present the Hospital Foundation with a generous donation of $10,000. The donation comes from the proceeds of the Kinsmen's annual fundraising events, such as the Dun- gannon Tractor Pull and the sold out Music in the Fields festival which took place in August. The $10,000 donated to the Wingham & District Hospital Foundation fulfils the pledge made by the Kinsmen dur- ing the CKNX Healthcare Heroes Radi- othon on October 18th and has been put towards the Foundation's goal of raising $93,000 for the purchase of a cardiac ultrasound machine. In the weeks that have passed since the Radi- othon, the WDH Foundation's Radio- thon campaign has surpassed the tar- geted $93,000 and the Kinsmen donation made a big difference in the Foundation's ability to achieve that goal. The Goderich and Kincardine Hospitals also received support towards their Radiothon goals and, in a new move, the Kinsmen made an addi- tional contribution of $10,000 to the Wingham and Area Healthcare Profes- sionals Recruitment Committee. The Wingham & District Hospital Foundation congratulate the Kinsmen on the continued success of their fund- raising efforts and send a heartfelt thank you to all the members of the club for their loyal commitment to local healthcare.
