Have 2x the impact this Giving Tuesday.

Help Dr. Cybulska k do more for her cancer patients! You can help bring a surgicalg robot to Durham Region! Donations to cancer surgery will be matched up p to $1 million!

1 in 2 Canadians will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Your loved ones need more and better surgical options, close to home.

The introduction of robot-assisted surgery in Durham Region will provide our experts with realtime 3D imaging, greater precision and control and the ability to make tiny, 360-degree movements beyond human capabilities. It does not replace medical staff but instead complements and enhances the team.

For patients, this means safer surgery with less blood loss or chance of infection, shorter stays in the Hospital, faster recovery and less chance of readmission. Not only does it improve the experience, robotic surgery increases cost savings in our health care system and attracts talented surgeons.

Community support is required to help fund the $5.1 million system, the most important surgical innovation to happen at Lakeridge Health in over a decade.

This Giving Tuesday every $1 will become $2 thanks to the Verwey Family. Take advantage of this incredible opportunity today and double your donation!

Give now at www.OurCancer.ca or call the Foundation at 905-433-4339.
