BUH Foundation was honoured to receive support for their upcoming On Air for Healthcare Radiothon with a generous donation of $10,000 from the NB Lions’ Club.  The “Every Little Bit Counts” fundraiser is in support of the new Ears, Nose and Throat (ENT) surgical equipment to replace 30 year old equipment.  The On Air for Healthcare Radiothon will be held on Friday May 12 at BUH’s main lobby and the Foundation encourages anyone planning on donating to come and announce their support on the radio.  The total fundraising goal is $380,000.

The NB Lions’ Club has been actively supporting their community since it became a chartered club in 1954,  through their various fundraisers.  One event in particular has been very popular and has grown significantly since it began.  The North Battleford Lion’s Gun & Toy Show is now in its 12th year and hosts over 70 vendors, 200 tables and about 1,500 people attend.  The show will be taking place Saturday, September 23, 2017.
