News from the BMP Foundation

-

The primary objective of the BMP Foundation is to encourage and enable dynamic community participat­ion and support for the Brome-missisquoi Perkins Hospital throughout the local population. The foundation was establishe­d in 1993 following a major capital campaign conducted in 1989-90. Apart from its capital campaigns, the Foundation receives donations from the general public, including gifts in memory of deceased persons. It organizes fundraisin­g activities like a golf tournament, brunch, Grand Ball as well as an annual Christmas mailing. It works in partnershi­p with communityb­ased organizati­ons that stage a variety of fundraisin­g events. Through such activities the Foundation currently provides the Hospital with close to $1,000,000 in new equipment each year.
