Battlefords Union Hospital Foundation has announced River Valley Eye Care as a sponsor for the 23rd annual Festival of Trees, taking place at the Western Development Museum, Nov 30-Dec 6. “River Valley Eye Care has been a generous contributor to the Festival of Trees for 20 years, recognizing the importance of enriched healthcare for The Battlefords and surrounding communities,” says BUH Foundation Executive Director Claudette McGuire. “Their donation not only supports a wonderful Christmas event for the area, but also reflects their commitment to community and giving back to those whom support their business.” Proceeds from the 2018 Festival of Trees will support “We Want to…Catch It! Stop It! Treat It!” capital campaign to purchase a new mammography unit for Medical Imaging at BUH. This mammography unit will help in early detection of breast cancer for men and women and can help to save lives.
