Marquette General Foundation

For You. For the U.P. For Life

The Bark River Lions Club is lending its support to the Accelerating the Future Capital Campaign at Marquette General Hospital.

In the photo, Bill Lake, left, representing the Bark River Lions, presents Jim LaJoie of the Marquette General Foundation the first installment of the pledge gift.

The club made a three-year pledge gift of $15,000 to the campaign which will bring state-of-the-art radiation oncology treatment technology to Marquette General Hospital.

The $4 million campaign project will result in a new linear accelerator, CT simulator and facility upgrades.

A number of patients from Delta County travel to Marquette for their cancer care.

The new technology is expected to be up and operating by this fall.
