WITH THE 2018 ANNUAL CAMPAIGN COME GREAT THINGS!

LAMÈQUE – The 2018 Annual Fundraising Campaign of the Fondation de l’Hôpital de Lamèque was officially launched this morning in the conference room of the Lamèque Hospital and Community Health Centre.

“With their presence, the foundations from the Acadian Peninsula promote the Network’s mission by enabling it to excel in improving people’s health. Therefore, each penny raised benefits the entire population, making the dream of a better quality of life for present and future generations possible.” Gilles Lanteigne, President and CEO of Vitalité Health Network.
