Recognizing Our Donors

Throughout our fundraising efforts for the expansion, we received many donations, large and small. To all who contributed, we say "thank you". Through events and individual generosity, we raised a significant amount of the funding needed to finance the new wing during the planning and construction phases.

This virtual wall of recognition reflects many of those extraordinary donations by groups and individuals who have given us permission to publicly acknowledge their support. We are also pleased to have a physical wall of recognition in the waiting room at the Centre that displays this information.

While the expansion campaign has technically ended, we continue to meet our obligation to discharge the loan from the Township that allowed us to proceed with the build in a timely and efficient manner. As long as there is an outstanding debt balance, we will continue to make updates and additions to our donor walls reflective of ongoing donor support.

The SLDMC is a registered charity and a turn-key medical practice facility. Our practitioners are responsible for the overhead costs of operating the clinical practice i.e. salaries, clinic supplies and services. Rental income from the practitioners and pharmacy are budgeted against property maintenance and services and facility operating and maintenance.

Donations help to finance clinic medical and I.T. equipment purchases as well as supplement our lease income for facility maintenance and capital improvements. The funds are allocated under the Board’s stewardship. Donations assisted with these upgrades and improvements in 2023.

Remembering Andrew Graham

Andrew Graham served as Director and Treasurer on the Medical Centre Board from 2010 until April of 2022. He was heavily involved in the operations of the Centre and hands on when needed for manual mundane labour. Respected by his peers around the Board table and by the practitioners and staff of the Centre, he was a source of knowledge, inspiration and calm reasoning. He believed the Medical Centre holds a place of great value in our community and his desire was always to see it be the best primary healthcare facility possible. With quiet dignity, amidst the obstacles of Covid, Andy navigated the course of a challenging cancer journey. Andy died at his heritage home, Locust Grove Farm, on Monday, April 18th, 2022. His presence is greatly missed. His contribution is greatly appreciated.
