Niagara Health has received its largest donation in history with a $60 million gift that it says will “truly transform” patient care at its facilities.
The donation from Greg and Diane Slaight is being directed towards critical patient care equipment and priority needs across Niagara Health.
Of the donation, $45 million will address priority patient care needs and the advancement and treatment of health needs for Niagara’s 485,000 residents.
$10 million will go towards the Walker Family Cancer Centre to ensure that patients can access cancer diagnoses and treatment close to come.
The final $5 million will support the building of the South Niagara Hospital for the Diagnostic Imaging Unit that will be known as the “Slaight Family Diagnostic Imaging Unit”.
Speaking on the gist, donor Greg Slaight says the donation was made possible through his father, media mogul Allan Slaight.
