LGH administrator John

Borthwick reports that the ..

matching arrangement now
makes it clear that the fund
will reach its target.

_ “On the strength of this
new involvement, Lions
Gate Hospital will now go to
tender and expects to begin
reconstruction of the
Children’s Floor almost
immediately,” Borthwick
said. “We want to get this
job done over the summer
when occupancy is lowest.

“The entire Children’s
Floor will be moved to
another area in the hospital
on a temporary basis. The
existing floor will then be
entirely gutted and rebuilt
incorporating all the design
concepts that will make it a
modern ward designed for
children.” “When we began
this fund raising project,” he
continued, “we knew that we
would have to work hard but
I don't think any of us
realized just how much

$300,000 was until we started
knocking on doors and
