The Royal Canadian Legion – Fort William Polish Veterans Branch 149 continued their long history of giving recently with a donation of $2,000 to support cardiovascular care at our Hospital. Pictured (left) presenting the donation is Legion President, Slav Falkowski.

The Legion’s foresight and leadership in advancing this program is remarkable and we are truly grateful for their gift.”
