HuronTel donates $200,000 to support MRI campaign at Alexandra Marine and General Hospital

Forty-two HuronTel staff and three board members presented AMGH Foundation board chair Laura Herman and Magnetic Moments cabinet member Ben Hogervorst with a $200,000 donation towards the MRI campaign.

Another major contribution was made to the Magnetic Moments MRI campaign, pushing the total raised to date to $2,596,089.

HuronTel recently contributed $200,000 to the Alexandra Marine and General Hospital (AMGH) to boost fundraising efforts for an MRI machine.

Staff in Lucknow made a cheque presentation to AMGH helping move the campaign closer to its goal of providing local access to advanced diagnostic imaging.

According to AMGH, once installed, the MRI machine will reduce the need for patients and families across Huron and Bruce counties to travel for essential care and significantly reduce lengthy wait times for a scan.

"As we progress towards our $6,500,000 fundraising goal over two years, we are so grateful for HuronTel's outstanding commitment to giving back and supporting healthcare close to home,” expressed Dr. Tiffaney Kittmer, chair of the Magnetic Moments campaign.

“Gifts like this one show us how deeply the local business community cares about supporting health care infrastructure. The longstanding generosity of our local businesses is such an asset to the local health care system.”

According to HuronTel, a long-standing community-focused organisation, accessible healthcare is important and will positively impact residents throughout the region.
