New Partnership Supports Regina’s NICU

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

March 1, 2023, Regina, SK – A new partnership between Hospitals of Regina Foundation and Coldwell Banker Local Realty, in support of our Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), in the Rawlco Centre for Mother Baby Care at Regina General Hospital, will help save babies’ lives.

The team at Coldwell Banker Local Realty has pledged a donation from every home purchase or sale in 2023 to support Hospitals of Regina Foundation and our Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), with the total to be announced and celebrated in January 2024. Each year, over 500 babies require specialized care in our NICU, in the Rawlco Centre for Mother Baby Care at Regina General Hospital, and this partnership will support the NICU priority needs and help ensure that these babies will continue to receive the best care possible, right here at home.

“Over 50% of our agents and their families here at Coldwell Banker Local Realty have been directly or indirectly impacted by the Regina Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. This cause is close to our hearts and we know first hand the importance it plays for families throughout Southern Saskatchewan. We are proud to partner with Hospitals of Regina Foundation and support their effort in our communities.” says Brin Werrett, Broker, Coldwell Banker Local Realty.

“We are thankful for this new partnership with Coldwell Banker Local Realty in support of our NICU,” says Dino Sophocleous, president and CEO, Hospitals of Regina Foundation. “Ensuring our medical teams have the technology they need to provide life-saving care for our smallest patients is our top priority. Providing our NICU with the cutting-edge technology these babies need wouldn’t be possible without the support of our community and partners like Coldwell Banker Local Realty.”
