What are you Thankful for?

As the Thanksgiving weekend draws closer, you should take time to reflect on the things that you are most thankful for. That list almost always starts with family, friends, and loved ones. High on my list, I am thankful to have relatively good health.

I am extremely thankful that Golden is fortunate enough to have the Golden & District Hospital and Durand Manor complete with compassionate and caring doctors and staff. What better way to thank those folk than to join the Friends of the Golden and District hospital and donate a gift to buy equipment that helps them help us.

The size of the gift, $50 or $500, is less important than the message it sends; "Thank you".

Support the doctors and staff by donating today.

Columbia Valley Credit Union supports the Friends GDH


 Cheque presented by Sharon Eddy, General Manager on behalf of the Columbia Valley Credit Union


.. by contributing $2000 to the Friends of the Golden & District Hospital 2018 fundraiser. The Columbia Valley Credit Union made their contribution by cheque so the donation does not show on the internet crowd-funding campaign.

For people who wish to support the hospital and contribute to the campaign, but do not want to donate over the internet, the Friends of the Golden & District can accept cheques made out to the East Kootenay Foundation for Health, Friends of the GDH. Cheques can either be dropped off at the Hospital or call me and I can arrange to have them picked up.
