On Friday, April 29, 2022, join us in our efforts!
Join us in the fight against cancer to improve health care at home first.
The Roses Radiothon fundraiser mobilizes teams from all over the Chaleur and Acadian Peninsula region to raise donations for the 16th edition of the event.
Despite the pandemic, fundraising activities in our communities have been organized throughout the past year. This annual event, which concludes the 2022 Campaign, will involve three radio stations and many volunteers. It is an invitation to all residents of the Chaleur and Peninsula regions to show that they want to have access to quality care close to home!
During the day of Friday, April 29, open your heart by donating to one of the four hospitals of your choice in the region, to help reach the $180,000 goal of the 2022 Roses Radiothon.
Your donations, no matter how small, will make a huge difference in people’s lives by providing access to quality health care close to their homes and families in our region!
The chairs of the Radiothon of Roses, Mona Losier, Chaleur Regional Hospital Foundation, Joseph Lanteigne and Annie-Julie Gauvin, Fondation Hôpital de l’Enfant-Jésus de Caraquet, Marie-Jeanne Noël, La Fondation de l’Hôpital de Lamèque Inc. and Eric Robichaud, Fondation Les Amis de l’Hôpital de Tracadie, unite their voices to ensure that this event is a success.
On April 29, 2022, let’s support the people of our community in their fight against cancer.
Make your donation now through one of the secure sites of one of our four foundations:
ROSES RADIOTHON : Quite a message of hope to those fighting the disease. $266,857, a record amount for health care at home first! – Read more
Here is the equipment and care that we will acquire this year with your donations for the 2022 Campaign if we reach our goal of $180,000:
For the Chaleur Regional Hospital Foundation, the Ortho Vision transfusion medicine machine will be a major asset for the laboratory of our regional hospital center, which also serves the hospitals of the Acadian Peninsula for specific and urgent blood tests.
The acquisition of the device will allow for the safe supply of blood products and derivatives during a blood transfusion. Accuracy and speed remain among the greatest advantages, especially for patients with advanced cancer or after aggressive chemotherapy when chronic anemia, a common complication at this stage of the disease, occurs.
For the Fondation Hôpital de l’Enfant-Jésus de Caraquet, equipment will be acquired in the areas of medical imaging (automated breast ultrasound) and in physiotherapy.
For the Lamèque Hospital Foundation, funding will be provided to the Medicine Unit through a project involving the multi-sensory room approach, ambulatory care, spiritual care, the chronic disease clinic and the nutrition service.
For the Fondation Les Amis de l’Hôpital de Tracadie, the acquisition of equipment for respiratory therapy, concentrated care, sensory medicine and the laboratory will be possible thanks to the Roses Radiothon.
