HALIFAX, Nova Scotia, March 27, 2019 – BOYNECLARKE LLP has announced their participation in the Scotiabank Charity Challenge in conjunction with the Scotiabank Blue Nose Marathon, directing all their fundraising efforts to the Dartmouth General Hospital Foundation.
The Dartmouth General Hospital Foundation raises funds from within the community to support the Dartmouth General Hospital. Their current focus is on their Above & Beyond Capital Campaign, with a goal of raising $13 million dollars that will go towards a new Surgical Centre, Intensive & Intermediate Care Units, Ambulatory Care & Endoscopy Centre, among other campaign priorities for the hospital.
“We are very excited to partner with BOYNECLARKE LLP for this year’s Scotiabank Charity Challenge,” says Stephen Harding, President and CEO of the Dartmouth General Hospital Foundation. “We want to thank BOYNECLARKE LLP for their support of the community and for helping us transform the way the Dartmouth General can deliver healthcare to all of Halifax. Their support of our Redevelopment Project, through the Charity Challenge, will help reduce wait times for hip and knee replacement surgeries and endoscopic screening procedures; increase capacity in inpatient, outpatient and diagnostic care; and improve patient flow, privacy and comfort.”
Each year, BOYNECLARKE LLP chooses to focus on a different charity for the Scotiabank Charity Challenge. The Dartmouth General Hospital Foundation was the perfect fit, with both organizations being rooted in Dartmouth and having a distinct focus on the community and giving back.
