Medicine Hat Health Foundation to recognize contributors ahead of National Philanthropy Day

The Medicine Hat Health Foundation is recognizing the contributions of its donors and the role they play in supporting healthcare across southeastern Alberta ahead of National Philanthropy Day on Nov. 15.

The annual observance allows the foundation to thank community members and the organizations whose generosity helps enhance healthcare equipment, spaces and programs available to patients at Medicine Hat Regional Hospital and throughout the region.

The foundation says those contributions have a direct impact on patient care, supporting everything from improvements to healthcare facilities and equipment to programs that contribute to patients’ physical and mental well-being.

It says philanthropic support can also contribute to lives being saved, with donations helping advance the quality of healthcare available to people in the community.
