Above: Colin Sinclair, member of the board of directors of East Kootenay Foundation for Health accepts an additional $5,000 gift from Connie Lewis on behalf of TransCanada Corporation for the A Clear View campaign.

This is the second gift from TransCanada resulting in total funding support of $10,000 to bring a digital stereotactic mammography unit to the East Kootenay Regional Hospital.   The energy company was one of the original leadership gifts to EKFH prior to the public launch in October 2011.

“TransCanada values the health of communities and we are proud to be a part of a project that will ensure a healthy future for community members,” shared Kathleen Paradis, an associate with TransCanada.

This generous gift is one of many that have now brought the campaign to just over the $820,000 mark toward the $1 million fundraising goal.  This is the EKFH’s largest campaign ever and we need your support to make it a success.  By giving generously you are helping in two ways:  your support will enable the East Kootenay Regional Hospital to become a center of excellence in breast cancer screening and, you will be supporting families and friends across the East Kootenay who may be facing a breast cancer diagnosis.
