The Rotary Club of Georgetown honoured our healthcare heroes during International Nurses' Week.
On Mother's Day we delivered cookies to Georgetown Memorial Hospital's Emergency Department for all the medical staff risking their own health and missing their Mother's Day festivities in order to care for others. On Wednesday, we supplied lunch to all the staff at Mountainview Residence, who have spent many weeks on the front line of Halton Hills' COVID-19 hotspot. We capped off the week with a Friday delivery back to the hospital with cookies for all staff.
We were pleased through this initiative to bring some needed business to Teddy's Greek Grill, Terra Cotta Cookie Company, and Heather's Bakery, all in Georgetown.
Our healthcare workers continue to put in long shifts in risky situations to care for others. When we feel stressed about the impact on our lives of the pandemic, imagine how bad this would be without these dedicated workers in our community. We owe them so much gratitude.
