About the foundation

The Board of Directors determined early on that additional elder care facilities were required in Kitimat and with one of the first grants received, set aside funds towards this goal. Meanwhile fund raising carried on assisting the hospital with needed equipment and improvements to health care.

The first donation to Kitimat General Hospital was seed money towards an improved work station for the Emergency Room. Over the years KGHF has provided funds for an electronic laryngoscope, portable ultrasound, infusion pumps, bariatric chair colonoscope. OB/GYN table for maternity, an ultrasound and examination table for diagnostic imaging.

The Foundation has also provided funds to the Mountainview Lodge Multi-Level Care for activity programs, the Oncology Department, renovations to
the kitchen facilities at Delta King Lodge and gifts for new mothers.
