VJH Tree Still Needs More Bulbs Lit

The Light a Bulb campaign for new equipment at Vernon Jubilee Hospital is still hoping to hit its target by the end of the year.

Campaign Chair Dr. Curtis Mohamed says 175-thousand dollars in donations have been received, about 75-thousand short of the quarter million dollar goal.

“It’s a challenge to raise such a significant amount in a short time, but we are optimistic that our community will once again come through for this important campaign,” says Mohamed.

The 30th annual fundraiser is using this year’s proceeds to purchase
new cancer screening equipment for the hospital’s Ambulatory Care Unit.
