The ESH Foundation wants to send reassurances that we are doing everything we can to support our community, and have received many inquiries from our donors asking how they can help our local hospital, hospice and our healthcare professionals during this unprecedented public health crisis. This is a true testament to the love and kindness that is present in Essex County, and together we will get through this.

The COVID 19 Response Fund will support the urgent and highest priority needs of Erie Shores HealthCare and Erie Shores Hospice that are outside of government support, but are vital for patient care. Funds raised will be used to support our front-line healthcare professionals, as well as to purchase critical equipment and technology to enhance our ability to diagnose and treat patients during difficult time.

The health and safety of each member of our community is our highest priority. As such, the foundation staff continue to work from home and are available to help you by phone or email. We encourage everyone to visit our website (www.eshfoundation.ca) and our social media feeds to stay informed and learn how you can join the fight against COVID 19. Please take this time to stay healthy and promote the wellbeing of yourself and others. I am proud to be a member of this community and am confident whatever lies ahead, we will overcome with the medical expertise, love and compassion that is Essex County.

Sending virtual hugs,

Christine

Executive Director
