Episode 17 - THE MILK MAN WHO WENT ON TO RAISE $40 MILLION FOR BGH

George Campbell was a not a physician — but he had the largest practice in town caring for everyone! His speciality was fundraising. George spearheaded campaigns that raised over $40 million to provide the best hospital facilities with state-of-the-art technology. Recently, George was admitted to the BGH where he was born — this time in one of the comfortable palliative care suites built with money he raised. On today’s podcast Crawford Reid — one of George’s ‘go-to people’ for fundraising for 60 years, Paul Moore — who enjoyed a personal and professional relationship with George and was young enough to be his son, and Kari Wilson the executive director of the Brant Community Healthcare System Foundation talk about George Campbell — the philanthropist whose fingerprints are everywhere on the face of healthcare in Brantford and Brant County.
