Officials with the Stratford General Hospital Foundation spoke to North Perth council on Monday, breaking down their In Our Hands Capital Campaign.

The campaign has a target of raising $30 million and is the largest in the hospitals history with a goal for a series of new medical equipment.

Council was requested to pledge $200,000 to the In Our Hands Campaign.

The funding has been broken down which includes $15 million for a new cancer and medical care clinic with co-located pharmacy, $8.5 million for new and replacement of medical equipment and $1 million for staff training and education.

Campaign Chair, Paul Roulston says the North Perth community over the years has shown a great deal of support for them.

“To date in the last 5 years, the 395 number represents the number of gifts donated to the Stratford General Hospital Foundation by residents of North Perth and the $124,166.30 is the total of those gifts that we’ve received over the last 5 years from residents of North Perth.’ said Roulston.

Council has chosen to turn to the budget committee to consider to have a pledge of support for the Stratford General Hospital.
