A Small Chapter with a Big Finish

June 23, 2026

The WDMH Foundation is grateful to the North Russell Women’s Institute for a generous $2,700 donation to Winchester District Memorial Hospital’s General Equipment Fund. This contribution will help purchase essential medical equipment that supports care for patients and families across our region.

The donation comes as the North Russell branch wraps up its local chapter and prepares to amalgamate with the Russell Village Women’s Institute. As part of this transition, members chose to invest their remaining funds in WDMH, the hospital that has long cared for their community.

It is a meaningful way to honour the branch’s history while continuing its longstanding commitment to giving back. Although the North Russell branch is concluding its work, its spirit of generosity lives on through the Russell Village Women’s Institute and in the care this gift will help provide.

Through this final donation, the North Russell Women’s Institute leaves a legacy that will be felt at WDMH for years to come.
