ZipGive's Text to Donate program is helping the Nanaimo District Hospital Foundation in their fundraising efforts through mobile Text to Give fundraising!
Their Vision - Excellent Healthcare, Facilities & Equipment. Their Mission - The Foundation creates opportunities for donors to advance healthcare in our communities. Nanaimo & District Hospital Foundation was established in 1977 as a means through which grateful patients and loved ones could "give back" to Nanaimo Regional General Hospital (NRGH). NRGH is a primary care facility and designated regional referral hospital for communities north of Victoria, including Port Alberni, North Island and the Island's west coast. The Foundation began actively fundraising in 1991 in response to the rising cost of delivering quality healthcare on Central Vancouver Island. Since then, they have raised over $31 million for NRGH and our residential healthcare facilities.
Advancements in medical treatments and technologies, growing demand for services - government healthcare funding simply can't cover it all. The Foundation raises much-needed dollars for state-of-the-art medical equipment, new facilities and renovations, and continuing education for healthcare professionals. They also provide a means through which conscientious corporations and individuals can say "thank you" by making a real contribution to healthcare delivery in our Central Vancouver Island communities.
