The Wingham and District Hospital Foundation received a sizeable donation from the Lucknow and District Kinette Club.

The hospital foundation says a $15,000 donation from the Lucknow and District Kinette Club will be going to support the chemotherapy clinic.

The donation is in honour of club members Natalie McDonagh and Tracey Simpson, who both received treatment at Wingham and District Hospital.

The money was raised at a duelling pianos fundraiser on May 2. The event raised $10,000 and the Kinettes topped it up with an additional $5,000.
