PRINCE GEORGE- Spirit of the North’s Spirit Day has come and gone, and the numbers are in.

The community rallied and surpassed last year’s record, raising an impressive $260,363 in just twelve hours.

The event helped raise money for several medical items including 12 infusion pumps and three life packs for the northern simulation program.

“We had a record number of calls coming in. We had a record number of challenges being issued. The best part is we saw an increased donation volume, which I think speaks to our community and what makes Prince George so special,” said Aimee Cassie, the CEO of Spirit of The North Healthcare Foundation.

Donations are still being accepted at www.spiritofthenorth.ca or by calling the Spirit of The North Healthcare Foundation office.
