Saugeen Memorial Hospital Foundation announces The Society of United Professionals as a returning Platinum Sponsor

Saugeen Memorial Hospital Foundation is very excited to announce that the Society of United Professionals is returning to  the Gran Fondo Lake Huron, presented by Bruce Power as a title sponsor of the 110k Distance!

The Society of United Professionals Local 160 is proud to sponsor this year’s “Gran Fondo Lake Huron”.  This event covers a range of things that we are interested in promoting locally including health, exercise, sport and community building with proceeds going towards the Southampton Hospital.  Our congratulations go out to the organizers of this great event!

Tracy Murray, the Foundation Executive Director continues to be amazed and grateful for the community’s support  in becoming sponsors.  “We are so appreciative of the Society of United Professionals returning platinum sponsorship. Without crucial sponsorship support we would not be able to host events like this, that not only benefit the hospital through the fundraising efforts of the participants but benefit our community as well by attracting tourists and providing a fun experience for the people who live and visit here. It is always great to have organizations like the Society of United Professionals involved with the Foundation and the community.”

Why Ride?

You ride because local healthcare matters to you and to the people you care about. Gran Fondo Lake Huron is about community stepping up to strengthen care close to home, ensuring our hospitals have the tools and technology needed to support patients when it matters most. Every kilometre you ride and every dollar you raise helps move healthcare forward across the Brightshores Health System region.

Over the years, this event has helped fund meaningful advancements in care, including a Mental Health and Wellness Recovery Centre, state of the art mammography equipment, MRI technology, and a CT Scanner. These investments reflect what happens when a community comes together with a shared commitment to better care.

When you ride, you are not just taking part in an event. You are helping ensure that high quality care is available for families, neighbours, and visitors, today and for years to come.
