The Proserpine Hospital maternity team recently received a significant boost thanks to the generosity of a local business, the Palace Hotel in Proserpine.
Last month, the hotel presented the hospital with a substantial donation of $1,834, the impressive sum raised during a special Mother’s Day fundraiser held in May. This heartwarming initiative underscores the strong community spirit in the Whitsundays region.
Acting maternity unit manager Nickey Pilgrim expressed immense gratitude for the contribution. "The midwives and the hospital as a whole are so thankful for this support," she stated.
Pilgrim also highlighted the crucial role played by numerous local businesses that generously donated prizes, significantly contributing to the fundraiser's success. These collaborative efforts exemplify the community's commitment to bolstering local healthcare services. The funds raised are earmarked to enhance the hospital’s maternity services, directly benefiting mothers and newborns in the Whitsundays region by providing essential resources and ongoing care.
Ash, an employee of the Palace Hotel and a key organiser of the fundraiser, had the pleasure of presenting the cheque to the appreciative hospital team. Midwives Nickey Pilgrim, Aleesha Tindall, and Shania Lade were present to graciously accept the donation, their smiles reflecting the profound impact of such community-driven initiatives.
The Proserpine Hospital maternity team extends their heartfelt thanks to the Palace Hotel and all the businesses and individuals who contributed to this highly successful fundraiser, demonstrating once again how local support strengthens vital healthcare services.
