The Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre (SLBMC) has received a donation of EC$25,000 from the Reginald Gordon Trust, continuing the organisation's longstanding commitment to supporting pediatric patients who require specialised medical care not currently available at the hospital.
The Medical Centre announced the disbursement in a recent press release, noting that the funds will help ensure that young patients have access to the treatment they need. The Reginald Gordon Trust has maintained a consistent record of contributing to this cause, making the latest donation part of an established tradition of philanthropy directed at Antigua and Barbuda's most vulnerable patients.
Pediatric care requiring specialised intervention often necessitates treatment abroad or through facilities and equipment not readily available locally. Contributions such as this one play a critical role in bridging that gap, providing the financial means for children to receive the care their conditions demand.
