I am sharing this story from DurhamRegion.com:
“Ajax-Pickering hospital gets new neonatal bed to care for premature babies”
Please visit the following page for more information:

Maybe we can get Phoenix to match our donation for new NICU bed. With all the people moving into the area, it will be needed.
