Recently, we asked our donors to include a message to our hospital staff with their gifts. The response was overwhelming—we received over 200 handwritten notes!
Below are just some of the messages that we received and have shared with the care teams and staff in our Victoria hospitals. Thank you to our donors for sharing your encouragement and support!

Dear Health Care Teams, We stand behind you! Thank you so very much for the wonderful care, energy and kindness you have continued to deliver to your patients. My dear sister passed away from COVID in February in Nevada. Both my husband and I are so grateful to you for the care you have given both of us whenever we’ve had to be a patient in one of our hospitals in GTR Victoria. You are truly angels!
My husband and I are so grateful for everything you do. Everyone really cares and it makes us feel really good. Keep up the good work!
I was a nurse throughout the polio epidemic. That was not nearly as extreme as Covid. I would be back helping if I could but my 86 years won’t let me. We didn’t give up and neither can you. Keep up keeping on! Eventually this too will pass. May God’s grace give you the strength & resolve to carry on.
I’m there for you, because I know you are there for me.
We stand behind you.
You are wonderful and loved.
