Double Your Donation Today
Thanks to Ken Harrison and Leslie McLauchlin, every holiday donation made to our Bigger, Better Cancer Care Campaign will be doubled.
Leslie and Ken are grateful for the exceptional care they’ve received over many years at Lions Gate Hospital and thanks to their generosity, we have an exciting opportunity to harness the power of our community and raise a total of $400,000 for the campaign to improve care for the thousands of people who rely on the Oncology Clinic at LGH.
On the North Shore we are fortunate to have a medical and cancer outpatient clinic conveniently located at Lions Gate Hospital. The services provided by the clinic, go well beyond chemotherapy treatments. A multi-disciplinary team provides blood transfusions, immuno-therapy, diagnostic procedures, symptom management support, a specialist pharmacy, counselling and a well-stocked resource library for patients.
However, as the demand for our services continues to expand, it’s clear that our current facilities are no longer adequate. Our Oncology Clinic was last updated almost 20 years ago and is struggling to keep up with the increasing needs of our growing and aging population.
You can be part of the solution that will transform care for our cancer patients at LGH. Your generous donations to our Cancer Care Campaign will be used to fund a new purpose-built Centre on the ground floor of the existing LGH building.
With your support, we can:
- Double the size of the clinic
- Increase the number of treatment spaces from 22 to 40
- Add three new counselling rooms
- Almost triple the size of the Oncology Pharmacy
- Double office space for staff research and administration
Receiving a cancer diagnosis is unquestionably frightening and life- altering, but with improved treatment options more people do survive and live well. Having a trusted team with the right resources, expertise and space can offer reassurance during a time when your life is on the line. Remember! Ken and Leslie have pledged up to $200,000 and every donation you make today will have double the impact.
