NEWS RELEASE
TIMMINS AND DISTRICT HOSPITAL FOUNDATION
*************************
This year we changed ‘course’ a little bit with regards to the John P Larche Charity Golf Classic -- We launched a virtual event where we walked the course together, the first in Northern Ontario!

Each donation or “shot” moved the ball along the course to raise funds to support the purchase of a new mammography unit for the Breast Wellness centre at TADH. The replacement cost is approximately $550,000 and unfortunately the government does not help cover the cost.

“Thanks to all of our golfers and sponsors we raised $63,634!! Together we exceeded our goal of $60,000 for the virtual edition of our tournament. We are overwhelmed by the support of this unique event “says Barb McCormick, Manager, Donor Relations.

If you missed your tee time, visit us at tadhfoundation.com where our fundraising efforts will be ongoing to make a donation anytime.

It is only through the support of the community that TADH can continue to provide the highest quality care our region deserves.
