This means that more than a hundred trees were illuminated tonight at 7 p.m. in front of the Chaleur Regional Hospital, Enfant-J\u00e9sus RHSJ\u2020 Hospital, Lam\u00e8que Hospital and Community Health Centre, Tracadie Hospital, Campbellton Regional Hospital, Grand Fall General Hospital, H\u00f4tel-Dieu Saint-Joseph de Saint-Quentin and Stella-Maris-de-Kent Hospital. Several people came out to attend the ceremony and to dedicate a Christmas tree in the name of a person or group of their choice in return for a $200 contribution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe lighting\nof the Christmas trees is an important activity during the Northern Star. It\nallows us to take a step back and appreciate everything around us, while\nremembering those who have left us or honouring a loved one. By illuminating\nthe entrance of our hospitals, we are also creating a warm atmosphere for\npatients, their families and the staff,\u201d declared Chantal&nbsp;Mallet, Northern\nStar Campaign Chair for the Chaleur region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This unifying\nproject was made possible thanks to a partnership between the eight foundations\nabove and UNI Financial Cooperation. Since 2005, the Northern Star campaign has\nallowed us to raise in excess of 1&nbsp;million dollars, which has been used in\nVitalit\u00e9 Health Network hospitals.\nIt is important to point out that 100% of the funds collected from the community\nwill go toward improving the region\u2019s health care services. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mini-trees are\nstill available at UNI points of service and in some businesses in the\nparticipating regions. The public is also invited to visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.etoilenord.ca\">www.etoilenord.ca<\/a>\nto make a donation that will help improve health care in the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For a 15th consecutive year, several hospital foundations from Vitalit\u00e9 Health Network illuminated their fir trees simultaneously.
