Cassidy and Joe Real Estate Contributes $5,000 to Stevenson Memorial Hospital Foundation GivingTuesday Campaign
[New Tecumseth, ON – November 30, 2021] – The Stevenson Memorial Hospital Foundation (SMHF) received a boost to this year’s GivingTuesday campaign with a generous $5,000 gift from Cassidy and Joe Real Estate.
The Stevenson Memorial Hospital Foundation (SMHF) GivingTuesday campaign goal for this year is $10,000 to support the purchase of vital equipment, such as a handheld Doppler (ultrasound), an Endoscope for the Operating Room, and other critical needs. This kind of support is crucial as the demand on Stevenson Memorial Hospital (SMH) continues to grow due to expanding population, as well as the additional needs of the pandemic have put immense pressure on essential resources.
As first-time donors, Cassidy and Joe Real Estate recognize the impact of quality health care locally. We are honoured to have their support and grateful for this exciting boost to the Stevenson Memorial Hospital Foundation GivingTuesday campaign.
“GivingTuesday is a charitable movement and this gift certainly exemplifies the spirit of giving,” says Mary Thomas, CEO, SMHF. “We are thrilled to celebrate this new relationship and accept this impactful $5,000 donation.”
“We at Cassidy and Joe Real Estate believe there is no better time to support and invest in health care than right now. That’s why we are proud to give back to Stevenson Memorial Hospital, a place that takes care of everyone in our community. We hope it inspires others to do the same” says Cassidy Lemoine, Cassidy and Joe Real Estate.
GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement, taking place each year after Black Friday. As the unofficial, opening day of the giving season, it’s a time when charities, companies, and individuals join together and rally for favourite causes. In the same way that retailers take part in Black Friday, the giving community comes together for GivingTuesday.
Cassidy and Joe Real Estate Group is a part of Re/Max Hallmark Chay Realty and Brokerage.
The Because of you, we can Campaign is the largest campaign in the SMHF’s history, supporting the redevelopment of Stevenson Memorial Hospital. The hospital’s redevelopment plan includes a revitalized Emergency Department, doubling the square footage of the hospital and tripling the amount of parking space. Refreshed outpatient rooms, birthing suites and laboratory space are also included in the plans. With an Emergency Department built to manage 7,000 visits a year that currently manages close to 40,000 per year, along with a growing population in south Simcoe and surrounding communities, this redevelopment is needed today and for future generations.
