Saskatchewan Hospital New Beginnings Fundraising Campaign has received a $100,000 donation from Innovation Credit Union. This gift will be used to purchase medical equipment and furniture for the new Saskatchewan Hospital under construction in North Battleford.

 “The new SHNB will provide the most vulnerable in our society the caring, compassion and time to heal that is essential to recovery and lies at the very heart of mental health care,” said Innovation CEO Daniel Johnson. “We are proud to be part of this campaign.”

The patient business centre in the new facility will be named the Innovation Credit Union Patient Business Centre in recognition of the donation, and is part of the vocational therapy program. Patients will have access to a vocational therapist who will assist them with essential employment skills such as resumé building, interviewing, job searching, training and apprenticing.

“We are extremely grateful to Innovation Credit Union for this generous gift,” said Corinne Bernier Delainey, New Beginnings Fundraising Lead.
