Wo-He-Lo Club raises almost $30K for hospital

The Wo-He-Lo club has raised almost $30,000 from its recent clothing sale enough to purchase an infant resuscitator for the neonatal ICU at Charlottetown's Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

Wo-He-Lo stands for work, help and love. It has been been raising money for the local hospital since 1933.

Every spring and fall, the members call on a network of donors to give their gently-used quality clothing and accessories for men, women and children.

They gather the items at their homes laundering and mending if needed then take them to the QEH for a massive sale that's open to both hospital staff and the public.

This year's fall sale took place Oct. 19.
