Midwest Medical Center in Galena Receives Large Donation

A sizable donation has been made to support Midwest Medical Center in Galena. The Midwest Medical Center Auxiliary donated $9,200, which was collected as part of its annual Tree of Love Christmas fundraiser. The money will go toward covering costs incurred by the hospital throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Annually for the past 11 years, the group has held a fundraiser allowing people to purchase ornaments to place on a tree located in the hospital, typically ending with a tree-lighting ceremony. While the tree lighting was canceled, donations to the Tree of Love fundraiser were still strong this year.
