A gift of over half a million dollars was donated to the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Foundation.
The Bachinski family made the donation of $507,840 to honour their parents Anne and Sam.
After receiving incredible care during the end of their lives at the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre, their family wanted to help others.
“We are profoundly grateful to the Bachinski family for their generosity in recognition of the care provided to their family and their continued commitment to support others needing care in our Hospital,” said Dr. Rhonda Crocker Ellacott, President and CEO of TBRHSC.
“Their support will have a lasting impact on cardiovascular surgery, cancer care, and orthopaedic surgery, helping to ensure patients across Northwestern Ontario can access high-quality, compassionate care close to home.”
This gift, along with the family’s 2019 contribution, is one of the largest family donations in the Foundation’s history of over a million dollars.
