Supporting the future of healthcare in Simcoe-Muskoka.
PureHealth Pharmacy at RVH, has made a $1-million gift to the Keep Life Wild campaign. This extraordinary donation from the Kamel family will play a crucial role in the health centre’s expansion plans, including supporting the construction of a new healthcare facility in Innisfil and doubling the size of the current site in Barrie.
“We are exceptionally proud to be part of the Keep Life Wild campaign, helping to achieve a vision that ensures that world-class, specialized healthcare is available here in Simcoe Muskoka,” says Magdy Kamel, Owner of PureHealth Pharmacy. “As a family, we call this region home—it’s the place we live, work and raise our kids. We want to leave a legacy that ensures that all our family, friends, and neighbours can build a good life and that requires us all to have access to top tier healthcare,” explains Kamel.
RVH Foundation launched the Keep Life Wild campaign with an ambitious goal to grant RVH $100 million to support expansion plans. The vision is to ensure everyone in the region has leading-edge care without having to travel to the GTA, particularly in the areas of cancer, cardiac, stroke, renal, critical care and child and youth mental health. To achieve this, RVH plans to build an integrated healthcare system across two sites that offers advanced, state-of-the-art diagnostics and personalized treatment, delivered by highly trained specialists.
