Contractors who worked on the renovation of the rehabilitation department of the Vestfjörður Health Institute presented the relatives of the department with an auspicious cash gift this morning. ?The contractors who worked there decided to donate 30,000 krónur to support the department, and then we looked for companies and associations to raise a larger amount,? says Pétur Albert Sigurðsson, who organized the collection. A total of 600,000 ISK was collected.
When asked, Pétur Albert says that it is up to the rehabilitation department what the money will be used for. ?This was intended for the purchase of equipment, but the relatives of the department can decide for themselves what they need the most. I myself have been in rehab there, so I wanted to pay a little back. Everyone was very positive in supporting the department and the collection took a very short time.?
The companies and associations that lent a hand are: Public Employees' Association, Híi, Ísblikk, Sjóvá-Almennar tiggera, AV plumbing, GG painting services, Vátyggarafélag Íslands, GÓK construction, Sparisjóður Bolungarvíkur, Tékníjnústað Vestfjörður, Kubbur, Kolkalýdýg og sjömannafélag Bolungarvíkur og Póllinn .
