Faris Team, an area real estate brokerage, recently gave the Collingwood General and Marine Hospital Foundation a cheque for $6,500, which is earmarked for the current MRI campaign.
Collingwood's hospital received word from the provincial government in December that it would receive operating funds for a new MRI lab on site. However, the hospital foundation is responsible for raising the funds needed to buy the MRI and to renovate a space in the hospital to build the lab for it. The government funding is for annual operating costs only.
The Faris Team has pledged to donate $100 from each home its team sells in Collingwood toward the hospital foundation's MRI campaign.
