Only 4 days and 13 hours left

With just four days to go to the Thanks Giving weekend, the Friends of the Golden & District Hospital have raised $15,574; $5044 in cheques and $10,530 donated on the internet site.

A couple of new parents have indicated support for the sleeper chair as they know what a huge difference it makes for the birthing partner to be able to grab some sleep during prolonged labour and after the baby arrives.

There are two rooms in the maternity wing in the hospital and only one room provides the birth partner of the expecting Mom with a place to sleep. A sleeper chair in the second room is needed to provide partners with a comfortable place to sleep.

The sleeper chair costs $2,885.

If you think birthing partners need a comfortable place to sleep during prolonged labour, donate $50 to help buy the new equipment for the maternity ward. Indicate if you are a new parent or expecting parent in the comment box so that we can gauge the interest in a new sleeper chair.

This is the community's opportunity to say thank you in a tangible way. You are part of that community! Your donation, large or small, will help the hospital serve the community better, serve you better.

Let's keep the donations coming so we can reach our goal of $34,691 by October 7th.
