Cranbrook, BC…. 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,” shares 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.
