Big Support for Local Cancer Care in 100 Mile House
The Morrison family’s generous gift is set to make a meaningful difference for cancer patients in the South Cariboo. Their donation will help enhance the oncology department at 100 Mile District General Hospital as it prepares to roll out upgrades in the new year, providing better care for residents facing cancer.
The contribution arrives at a time when local health resources including emergency and cancer services have faced pressures and closures, making new investments in care all the more welcome.
What the Donation Means for Patients
Interior Health says the funding will expand resources and services in oncology, giving people closer access to treatment without long trips to bigger centres. By investing now, the community expects that patients and families will feel the impact quickly once improvements begin.
Local leaders and health advocates have welcomed the news, noting that strong support from donors like the Morrisons helps strengthen regional health care at a time when services are stretched across rural B.C.
A Community Effort to Improve Health Services
The donation shines a spotlight on how philanthropy directly supports patient care, especially for serious illnesses such as cancer. In other parts of British Columbia, similar community-led funding efforts have helped expand oncology services, support research, and bring care closer to home.
For residents of 100 Mile House and surrounding areas, this contribution isn’t just financial it represents hope, improved access to treatment, and strengthened health services right where they live.
