The Mental Health Program at Orillia Soldiers’ Memorial Hospital is getting a $12,500 boost thanks to Angie Green-Hill’s Online Auction for Mental Health.
The auction was hosted on Facebook from May 4th to the 10th of this year.
The $12,500 raised will enhance the common space in the Extra Care Area on Soldiers’ Mental Health Floor. These improvements will increase safety for both patients and staff and will enhance the ECA’s programming and services.
“Angie’s latest contribution will allow us to further develop our Extra Care Area project to better support our patients,” said Jennifer Schuler, Program Manager of the Mental Health Program at Soldiers’. “We are so impressed by Angie’s desire to give back and so thankful she chooses to direct these funds to the Mental Health Program where they make such a meaningful difference in the lives of patients who use these services.”
Since 2017, Angie’s Auction has raised more than $50,000 in support of Mental Health programs at Soldiers’. Last year, the funds raised were directed toward recreational equipment for inpatients on the Mental Health Unit. Previously, her auction has supported Outpatient Mental Health Services at Soldiers’.
