YOUR IMPACT
The Brockville and District Hospital Foundation is dedicated to enhancing the quality of care at Brockville General Hospital. With your support, Ride the River 2024 aims to make a significant impact by directing all proceeds towards the acquisition of new hospital beds.
This initiative is crucial in ensuring that Brockville General Hospital can upgrade its facilities with state-of-the-art beds, replacing outdated ones that are nearing the end of their service life. By introducing advanced smart hospital beds, we strive to elevate the overall patient experience and comfort levels.
Our Ride the River Planning Committee has set an ambitious goal of raising $500,000 for this year's event. Your generous contribution will directly contribute to modernizing community care and improving patient comfort during their recovery journey. Whether these beds are used for post-surgery rehabilitation or to accommodate overnight stays by loved ones, the introduction of cutting-edge technology will undoubtedly enhance the overall quality of patient care.
Last year, Ride the River achieved an incredible milestone, raising $2 million thanks to the unwavering support of our riders, donors, and anonymous benefactors who matched all proceeds raised.
The Brockville and District Hospital Foundation remains a vital cornerstone for the well-being of Brockville and the surrounding areas. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of patients and their families.
