Life Saver Campaign

Be a Life Saver.

We invite you to be part of our annual Life Saver Campaign by donating to help us acquire new endoscopy equipment for BVRMC’s Same Day Surgery Department. This equipment, known as a scope, aids in vital procedures like screening colonoscopies and diagnosing gastrointestinal (GI) tract issues.

According to the American Cancer Society, 1 in 25 people will face colorectal cancer. Regular screenings and early detection are crucial for successful treatment. BVRMC performs around 1,000 scopes annually, potentially identifying issues before they become severe.

Your contribution will enable us to purchase the state-of-the-art Olympus EVIS X1 System, set to launch in Fall 2023. Our current system is 11 years old, and this new technology will significantly improve surgeons’ visibility during procedures.

Your generosity will make us the first in the region to have this new system. Your donations make quality local health care possible. Thank you!
