The Pinawa Foundation is pleased to announce that they have collected the needed $32,000 for a new walk-in tub at the Ironwood Supportive Living Facility. Major contributors to the three-month campaign were the Pinawa Health Auxiliary, the Ironwood Corporation, Acsion Industries, MB Hydro’s Winnipeg River Generating Station staff, and 32 residents of Pinawa. The need for a walk-in tub was identified by the Pinawa Health Auxiliary a few years ago. This new tub facility will eliminate the practice of transporting residents to the Pinawa Hospital for baths.
“This is the type of project that the Pinawa Foundation is proud to support” said Chris Saunders, Chairman of the Foundation. “Pinawa residents were in need and we have the ability to help. The facility upgrades are now underway and the tub has been ordered”. The Foundation would like to thank all of the individuals and groups that made this campaign a success.
