Alexandra Hospital To Host Tree of Lights Fundraiser

Donations are being accepted right now and the event is free to the public.

INGERSOLL - The Alexandra Hospital in Ingersoll will be hosting their annual Tree of Lights fundraiser tonight. 

They will be lighting up two very special Christmas trees in front of the hospital in honour of loved ones. Lights can be lit for a donation of 10, $50 or $1,000 stars available. 

Executive Director of the Alexandra Hospital Foundation Robin Schultz says they will be lighting up two trees on Sunday night. 

"One is the Canon Griffin tree, it is strictly a memorial tree and the bulbs are $50 and it's all white because it is in memory of people. The other tree is the Dynes Commemorative Tree and it is white lights and coloured lights and people can donate $10 for a light bulb in memory or honour of a loved one." 

Executive Director of the Alexandra Hospital Foundation Robin Schultz says it is free to attend the light ceremony happening at 6:30 p.m in front of the hospital. 

"They have a chance to see the tree's lit up and feel sense of community, knowing that all of the donations will go towards helping us fund new hospital equipment."
