Wellington Brewery is kicking off the month of May with a fundraiser to support the efforts of front-line healthcare workers and support staff at Guelph General Hospital. 

The brewery will be donating 25 cents from the purchase of every can of SPA sold online from their brewery retail store as well as accepting donations at the checkout of their online store to support Guelph General Hospital Foundation’s Together We Care Campaign. The money from this campaign will go towards helping build an expanded Emergency Department, invest in new patient care equipment and technology, and upgrade the Special Care Nursery.

“It has been a stressful time for health care providers and people coming to the ER. People have been scared and lonely. We are hopefully getting closer to the ‘finish line’ but until we get there our hospitals will be overloaded and need all the support we can provide,” says Dr. Chung.

“We are hoping to rally the community in supporting the workers who have been managing the daily stress and challenges of the past year. We also encourage those who are interested in contributing directly to the hospital, to visit Guelph General’s donation page,” says Karyn Boscariol, Wellington Brewery’s Community Outreach Coordinator.
