Thank You Rotary Club of Sault Ste. Marie 

The Rotary Club of Sault Ste. Marie has demonstrated outstanding generosity and community leadership through remarkable $40,000 contributions to the Group Health Centre. This meaningful investment is supporting critical priorities in heart health, obstetrics, and diagnostic imaging—areas that touch the lives of so many individuals and families in our community.  Their continued partnership reflects a shared dedication to improving health outcomes and ensuring compassionate, patient-centred care for all.

Thank You Kiwanis Club of Lakeshore

Four different types of pediatric transducers were purchased thanks to the generous donation of over $34,000 from the Kiwanis Club of Lakeshore.

Transducers produce pictures of the inside of the body using sound waves. Sensitive to the fact that their bodies are still developing and growing the ultrasound equipment used for pediatric patients is different than the technology used for adults.
