The Lab department at Lake Chelan Health is celebrating “lab week” with their 2nd annual food drive challenge now through April 30th.

Last year, the hospital staff and community raised over $17,000 for the Chelan Food Bank. This is equivalent to about $32,000 worth of food since the food bank is able to purchase items at a much lower cost allowing them to help even more families in need.

This year hospital staff hope to raise as much money as we can for the food bank. We are also accepting non-perishable food donations and those may be dropped off at either the Chelan or Manson fire departments.
