$25K Donation For Grey Bruce Health Care

The Baker Street Women's Club is supporting regional health care in Grey Bruce in a big way.

The 120-member club has donated $25,000 to the Community Foundation Grey Bruce to create a permanent endowment fund. That fund will provide an annual donation to the Residential Hospice of Grey Bruce and the Owen Sound Regional Hospital Foundation.

The Community Foundation Grey Bruce will match the generous donation with an additional $10,000 from its Matched Funding Program.

That program matches fifty cents on every dollar for new and existing funds up to $10,000 per fund.

The Matched Funding Program was created from a generous donation from the Estate of the late Betty McKay, a founder of the Baker Street Women's Club.
