LASEST TOTAL AS OF 3:15pm: $31,250
Talk about a major boost for the cause!
Until 6:00pm (Friday), Moose FM Cochrane and Iroquois Falls are on the air live, raising money towards portable digital X-ray machines for the hospitals in Cochrane, the Falls and Matheson.
Just after 3:00pm, that major boost happened. Moose FM morning man and Lady Minto Hospital board chair Pat Dorff recount it.
Rout: “Somebody walked through the door. Her name was Pat Morin.
Dorff: “She was with Lifeline. And I’m here to tell you, people, listen very, very closely: We just got $21,000!”
Rout: “That’s not our daily total. That’s the donation.”
Dorff: “That’s one donation.”
That donation raised the total three-fold at that time.
Dorff explained that Morin recently left Lifeline. The $21,000 was part of wrapping that up.
