The Janeway Children’s Hospital Foundation launched its Telethon with an event at Peacock Primary School in Happy Valley-Goose Bay.
It’s the first time the annual fundraiser has been launched in Labrador, and Telethon manager, Ruth Squires said they couldn’t be more excited.
The annual fundraises for important equipment for the Janeway Children’s Hospital in St. John’s which serves the entire province.
The 39th annual Janeway Children’s Miracle Network Telethon will be broadcast on NTV on Saturday, June 3 and Sunday, June 4.
This year’s goal is $2.5 million to purchase highly specialized pieces of surgical and diagnostic imaging equipment.
