We Did It! $8.5 Million Campaign Goal Surpassed!

The announcement was made at the Best Western Lamplighter Inn at the Extreme Campaign Kick-off event on Friday, October 29th over a lunch celebration decked out in a construction theme. Using video clips borrowing “move that bus” imagery from ABC’s hit reality TV show Extreme Makeover Home Edition, the hard work of volunteers and the generosity of major donors was honoured.

Executive Director, Margaret Anderson, was ecstatic to get to this day saying: “I’m so proud of everyone involved. With the donations of many generous organizations and individuals, our House will be able to double in size so we can better serve the families of sick children who need us.”

The House will reopen in March 2011 with 34 beautiful bedrooms. The 20,000 square foot addition along with the complete renovation of existing space will make it possible to comfortably serve families from all over Southwestern Ontario for the next 20 years.
