TD makes donation to EKRH ICU
East Kootenay Foundation for Health (EKFH) is proud to announce TD Bank Group’s donation of $5,000 for the ICU Redevelopment Project.
“TD wants to make an impact and a lasting difference in the communities where we live and work,” said Doug Frioult, TD Canada Trust Branch Manager in Cranbrook. More than half of the $56 million TD donated is directed to organizations that focus on issues that our customers and employees care about – such as access to health care, education, financial literacy, and the environment.”
In addition to the financial gift to EKFH’s fundraising campaign TD also empowers its employees to take on an active role in volunteerism. Frioult also donates his volunteer time and sits on the board of directors for EKFH.
In October 2014 the foundation committed to raise funds for equipment for the hospital’s new intensive care unit, currently under construction. This commitment frees up a portion of Ministry and KERHD funding for the project that will now be used to renovate the old ICU area into which the existing pediatric unit will move.
The fundraising campaign continues with a goal of raising $1,000,000 to fully equip the new six-bed unit at the East Kootenay Regional Hospital. A donation to the ICU Redevelopment Project can help improve care and potentially save lives. To show your critical support for intensive care, visit www.ekfh.ca.
