Saugeen Memorial Hospital Foundation welcomes Progressive Results Group (PRG) at the Silver Sponsorship Level

Saugeen Memorial Hospital Foundation is pleased to announce that Progressive Results Group has joined the Gran Fondo Lake Huron team as a Silver Sponsor!  As a Silver Sponsor, PRG receives 3 complementary registrations, recognition on the website and social media, and signage at the event.

Progressive Results Group was founded early in 2010 in Kincardine, Ontario.  Since then, it has grown to three locations – Kincardine, Hanover and Saugeen Shores and provides a full service approach to branding and marketing that includes design, print and social media.  PRG’s team of savvy marketing professionals provides customers with expert graphic design, web design, social media, print and branding options.

President Dylan Bartlett likes to have fun and is excited to be working with the Gran Fondo Lake Huron Team.  “We’ve already been supportive of many of the Saugeen Memorial Hospital Foundation’s initiatives and we are excited to take this a step further by working with the Gran Fondo.”  PRG will be mainly involved in the social media marketing component of the Gran Fondo – focussing on consistent exposure on multiple platforms to help ensure the message of the event gets out to as many potential participants across Ontario as possible.

The 2018 Gran Fondo Lake Huron is a new fundraising initiative for the Saugeen Memorial Hospital Foundation.  Executive Director Sally Kidson states “The cost of hospital equipment keeps rising and the need for state of the art equipment is real.  With the new Emergency Room and Lab expansion project nearing completion, we need to find new ways to increase our current fundraising goals.  This ride, with a goal of $150,000 to be raised, will help fill the gap between what we do now and what the need is going to be.”

Why Ride?

This year, funds raised through Gran Fondo Lake Huron will strengthen healthcare in our region by enhancing regional stroke care and supporting essential equipment upgrades at Brightshores Southampton Hospital. Every dollar raised helps ensure our healthcare teams have the tools they need to provide high-quality, lifesaving care to our community and visitors.

When a stroke occurs, every second counts. Access to advanced imaging technology and rapid intervention tools can mean the difference between recovery and lifelong disability. Saugeen Shores residents rely on our designated stroke center in Owen Sound for urgent stroke care. Funds raised will help equip the center with essential upgrades to improve diagnosis and treatment, ensuring faster, more effective care for patients throughout our region.

Funds raised will also help upgrade vital equipment at Brightshores Southampton Hospital, ensuring our healthcare teams can provide exceptional care close to home. This year’s funding will replace essential tools like crash carts, keeping staff prepared for urgent situations. Investing in modern equipment enhances patient care, improves efficiency, and supports our hospital in meeting the community’s growing healthcare needs.

Your participation in Gran Fondo Lake Huron directly strengthens local healthcare. Whether you ride, volunteer, or donate, you are helping provide the vital resources that keep our hospital at its best, ensuring lifesaving care for our community today and for generations to come.
