Good start to the day.

As of 7:00 this morning gifts amount to $2825.

Giving Thanks to the Golden & District Hospital got off to an early start. The page opened at midnight EST so was accepting donation at 10 pm MST yesterday. Gifts trickled in last night from late-night Facebook followers. Now it’s the turn of the early risers.

 
Special thanks to Marc Hadford, who was quick to follow my lead last night, and to Dr Chad Genning and Dr Jeff Dolinsky who were burning the midnight oil.

Giving Thanks to Golden and District Hospital is a fundraising campaign that requires the support of the entire community and all our friends. When we work together as a community, we can achieve great things and help our hospital continue the important work they do.

If 1000 friends each gave $50 we would reach our goal!!

The money raised by the Friends of the Golden & District Hospital stays in Golden and is used to purchase equipment for the Golden Hospital and Durand Manor.
