Fashion show raises money for Ross Memorial Hospital

Models strutted their stuff at Rivermill Village in Lindsay recently to raise money for a good cause.

Rivermill Village Social Committee hosted a fashion show in May to benefit the Ross Memorial Hospital’s spring appeal. The “Exceptional Care in the Kawarthas” appeal is raising funds for 12 vital signs monitors for the critical care program. “How generous of the Rivermill residents to help local patients through their fashion show,” said Erin Coons, Ross Memorial Hospital Foundation Executive Director. “Their contribution brings us even closer to our fundraising goal for the vital signs monitors.

Coons thanked the event’s co-convenors, June Sale and Marilyn Beacock-White on June 14th. The show which featured the fashions of Cathy Allan Ladies Wear, raised $700.

“To date, we’ve reached 73% of our goal, which is $87,323. Support from individuals, businesses and groups such as the Rivermill Village residents makes all the difference when there are medical equipment needs at the Ross.”   said Coons.
