Lions Club Long-Time Supporters

By Celebrate!, News, Thank You!
The Nanaimo Lions Club has generously donated $20,000 to the Nanaimo & District Hospital Foundation in support of our new Intensive Care Unit (ICU)! They have been diligently fundraising for the Nanaimo Regional General Hospital for a year, primarily through bottle donations.
The club has been supporting the Nanaimo & Regional General Hospital since 1991, giving a total of almost $60,000 over 31 years! In the past, they have supported the hospital through Palliative Care, Cardiac Care, and the Lifeline Silent Guardian program, which supplements individual monthly monitoring fees for those that cannot afford the full cost. We are deeply grateful to the Nanaimo Lions Club for their ongoing support, and congratulate them on their 75th anniversary!

We had so much fun with our Smile Cookie Car Dealership Champions Harbourview Volkswagen this past September that they decided to carry on supporting our Hospital throughout October! In addition to buying and sharing over 45 dozen Tim Hortons Smile Cookies, they hosted a donation drive event resulting in an incredible $5,000 for our Nanaimo Regional General Hospital’s new ICU! We cannot thank these community leaders enough for their community spirit, kindness and generosity!
