 Cambridge Memorial Hospital Receives Funding

The Ontario government announced on Wednesday that it will give over $5 million to CMH this fiscal year, which will enable the hospital to proceed with infrastructure improvements such as boiler replacements, fire sprinkler installations and roof replacement. The hospital will also be eligible for an additional $4 million in funding in the next fiscal year to complete these projects.

The partner organizations of the Prosperity Council encouraged the government to re-instate the hospital’s funding, and are pleased that Cambridge Memorial will receive the funds it needs for its expansion projects.

Each month Prosperous Times will be sent to you with submissions from the four Prosperity Partners.
