The Ladner branch of the Royal Canadian Legion has donated $16,000 to the Delta Hospital Foundation for equipment purchases.
The money is being used for a stretcher for the ER and two food wagons for the food and nutrition services department at the Ladner hospital.
"Over the years, the Ladner Legion has generously donated over $150,000 to Delta Hospital to purchase vital equipment," said Jackey Zellweger, corporate and event manager for the foundation. "We're so appreciative of the Legion's ongoing commitment to support exemplary health care in our community."
"We are so proud of our members and volunteers," said Ladner Legion manager Jacky Hillairet. "Without their support and involvement we wouldn't be in a position to support Delta Hospital. It's because of them that we're able to make these important contributions to community health care."
