BOUCHERVILLE, Que. — The 14 Lowe’s and RONA corporate stores in the Greater Toronto Area have joined together to make a $14,000 contribution to William Osler Health System Foundation. The bequest will help the foundation purchase medical equipment, including ventilators and vital signs monitors, needed at its three hospitals as they respond to the ongoing public health crisis. Members of the Osler Foundation and the Lowe’s Canada network held a physically distanced official cheque presentation to mark the occasion.
“Hospitals have been facing increased pressure over the past few weeks, and it was important to us to give back to help front-line workers continue their outstanding work,” Ramona Paul, district manager at Lowe’s Canada, said in a release.
