\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Established in 2017, the Brick Riverside Foundation is a geographic-specific charitable foundation that provides support for St. Lawrence River-area programs and institutions to enhance the quality of life in the Thousand Islands region. It is designed to have broad impact in perpetuity.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><\/span>The Brick Riverside Foundation gift to support The Hope + Healing Campaign for River Hospital is the latest from a Northern New York Community Foundation-affiliated fund. A gift from Russell and Mary Wilcox was facilitated earlier this fall through the Community Foundation.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><\/span>\u201cWe are pleased to join the Community Foundation in its longstanding support of River Hospital,\u201d Cary and Janet Brick said. \u201cWe hope our Riverside Foundation\u2019s holiday season contribution will encourage others to support the hospital as well in the spirit of sharing and goodwill. Regardless of amount, every contribution toward River Hospital\u2019s major expansion is meaningful.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><\/span>The Community Foundation has a long history of supporting health care in Northern New York.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><\/span>\u201cIt is especially meaningful when we can partner with donors like the Bricks and the Wilcoxes to build upon the Community Foundation\u2019s own investment,\u201d said Rande Richardson, Community Foundation executive director. \u201cWe are honored to work with donors like them to support river-area organizations and believe in enduring stewardship and care of their charitable intentions. Working together in this way is powerful.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><\/span>\u201cAlready a valuable health care resource, when completed, River Hospital will become the river area\u2019s best-equipped family medical facility,\u201d Mr. and Mrs. Brick said. \u201cFrom our own experience, we can attest to the compassion, thoughtfulness and excellence of River Hospital\u2019s caring professional medical team. The entire St. Lawrence region is fortunate to have such a wonderful medical facility in its own backyard. River Hospital is a true Thousand Islands gem.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 Mr. and Mrs. Brick said they appreciate River Hospital for its \u201cavailability to address the immediate health care needs of year-round and seasonal residents,\u201d which they believe is \u201ccritical to the vitality of the international Thousand Islands region.\u201d<\/p>\n
