Manitoba 23 MISERICORDIA HOSPITAL Your Legacy Can Support the Future of Care in Manitoba Your legacy gi will make a difference as we strive to support the unique services that only Misericordia offers to Manitobans. From the Eye Care Centre of Excellence to Health Links – Info Santé to the Sleep Disorder Centre, your support today, and in the future, makes a tremendous impact on the lives of residents, patients, and all those who walk through Misericordia's doors. mhcfoundation@misericordia.mb.ca | 204.788.8458 misericordiafoundation.com/legacygiving WHS Pet Shop's online wish list, which goes directly off the shelf into the shelter. Got Air Miles to spare? You can donate them. How about an old winter beater that needs to be towed? The WHS will take it off your hands if you're willing to donate the proceeds. Monetary contributions are always ap- preciated, of course, and the 3,000 month- ly supporters who have set up automatic withdrawals are responsible for keeping "the lights on," Lewis says. Or, in one case, re-covering the grounds. A couple of months ago, one of the yards the WHS uses for behaviour training's rocky run was resurfaced with Astroturf thanks to one generous donor. "To see the first dog come out, and just their reaction — because running on Astro- turf is a lot more fun than running on rocks — to see him roll around and just have the best time … it was so incredible because this totally made a difference for this ani- mal. And you know that's going to translate to all of the other ones who are going to benefit from that run," Lewis says. "Anything we can do to improve things for these animals is just such a win."
