Just one week after the launch of The Strengthening Surgical Care Close to Home Initiative, the Lake of the Woods District Hospital Foundation is proud to announce the first major community gift. Mike and Mona Linton have proudly committed $125,000 to support the initiative, which was launched with the transformational $1 million gift from The Dufresne Family, in memory of Douglas and Michael Dufresne.
The Lintons’ gift reflects their shared belief that exceptional healthcare depends not only on modern equipment, but also on investing in the people who provide care. Their generosity will help create opportunities for specialized education, professional development and hands-on training, ensuring local surgical teams continue to build their expertise while providing exceptional care in Northwestern Ontario.
