Dear Editor,
Richmond Hospital will be embarking on a major addition soon.
This hospital has been serving our community for over half a century. It has top-notch and most dedicated professionals and support staff.
However, the facility is getting old. Also, the population of Richmond has increased considerably during the past few years. Richmond Hospital Foundation has been doing an excellent job in fundraising and other activities for the betterment of the hospital. Planning for an acute care tower with the most modern equipment and facilities is very timely.
Of course, such a huge project will require a lot of financial and moral support from the community. India Cultural Centre of Canada’s Gurdwara Nanak Niwas has been an integral part of this community for almost 30 years. As such, this place of worship has launched a fundraising campaign for the Richmond Hospital Foundation. The response so far has been great. In this context, I would like to urge members of our community, to donate generously to this worthwhile cause.
Donors can come to India Cultural Centre of Canada’s Gurdwara Nanak Niwas, 8600 No. 5 Road, Richmond, to donate. If by any chance, any potential donor is unable to come to the Gurdwara, he/she should leave their contact information. They can do so by phoning the Gurdwara (Sikh Temple) at 604-274-7479 or me at 604-836-8976.
