It is the largest single gift the St. Martha’s Regional Hospital Foundation has received in its
St. Martha’s Regional Hospital
history. The late John MacLellan, a well known local resident who served the community for more than six decades driving taxis in the Antigonish area has made a legacy donation of $1.68 million.
Foundation chair Meghan MacGillivray-Case says MacLellan’s gift will live on for years to come.
The $1.68 million gift brings the Foundation significantly closer to its capital campaign goal of $20 million by 2026.
In recognition of the donation, the foundation and Nova Scotia Health have renamed the hospital’s Palliative Care Unit in MacLellan’s honour.
