OAKVILLE BEAVER Wednesday, October 21, 2009 · 18 Auxiliary celebrates 60 years of caring at Oakville hospital Continued from page 11 leader for the Maternal Child Program. "They have made a tremendous difference to the quality of care we can offer to ease and improve our patients' and their families' hospital experience," said John Oliver, HHS president and CEO. While the Auxiliary is known for its members' kindnesses, it has seen its efforts pay off in dollars for the hospital. In 1985, its first pledge of $1 million over five years was made for the Intensive Care Unit. In 1997, it began raising $1.4 million for the Capital Equipment Campaign supporting a new Dialysis Unit. In 2003, $1.25 mil- lion in support of the OTMH Critical Support Campaign, which raised funds for the purchase of diagnostic imaging equipment. In 2009, the Auxiliary pledged $3 million over the next 10 years towards the New Oakville Hospital. As OTMH grows, so too does the Auxiliary.
