#WashYourHands t-shirts have brought in hundreds of dollars for Community Food Share.
Winchester District Memorial Hospital (WDMH) says Registered Nurse and Team Leader Dawn Erickson thought it was time to give back as staff has been overwhelmed by the generosity of the local communities during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Two #WashYourHands t-shirts were designed by Dawn and her husband Mike, who owns Erickson Graphics & Screen Printing. The shirts were sold to staff, families, friends and even patients, according to the hospital. A donation of $500 to Community Food Share in support of local food banks in the region was the final result. The hospital says the South Dundas Council matched the donation.
Erickson says things took off and now there is staff all over the hospital wearing the t-shirts.
“I think it shows how amazing the WDMH team is. We are all in this together.”
