How much do you know about Yarmouth Regional Hospital, and Yarmouth Hospital Foundation?

Yarmouth Hospital Foundation and our presenting partner Y95.5 radio station are jointly hosting a trivia contest in the lead up to this year’s All Virtual We Care Radiothon with prizes donated generously by Rayanne and Aldric Robicheau (thank you both so much!).

Every (business) day from Thursday, February 17th to Wednesday, March 2nd there will be two opportunities (two different questions) to win a gift card worth $25 for gas at the Petrocan station at the corner of Starrs Rd. and the Haley Rd. Each day, Y95.5 will ask one trivia question on-air and pick their daily winner. YHF will be posting a different trivia question each day at 9am on our Facebook page.

To win on Facebook, you must —

1) Like & Follow the Yarmouth Hospital Foundation Facebook Page.

2) Like the post with the day’s trivia question.

3) Answer the trivia question correctly!

All contestants who fulfill these three simple requirements will be entered into a random draw to win, and the winner will be notified the same day at 4pm! We will then message you to make arrangements to get you your prize.

The 2022 WE CARE Radiothon (coming to you on March 3rd with Y95.5) is raising money for some cardiac equipment for our Diagnostic Imaging Department. You can play a vital role in this fundraising effort through supporting our fundraising auction — and the 2022 WE CARE Radiothon itself. All funds raised from this online auction will be added to the Radiothon today and will support the purchase of this cardiac equipment.

“The support of the hospital foundation in purchasing this equipment has helped us successfully recruit a Cardiologist to Yarmouth, something we have been without for 8 years!” says Dr. Brian Moses. “This new Cardiologist, along with the equipment, will give us further testing and treatment capabilities here which will mean less travel to Kentville or Halifax for patients from the tri-county area.”

Items donated to us for auction include some gorgeous memorabilia from the worlds of music and hockey, local art, and three chances to win the ultimate getaway for two at Nova Scotia’s premier luxury wilderness resort & hotel.
