The campaign

A new hospital. Great care. Stronger community.

KCMH 2.0 is the planned new Kings County Memorial Hospital: a brand-new rural community hospital designed to meet the needs of the future. While we prepare for it, the Foundation continues to support the current KCMH.

Our goal is $7 million.

The Foundation is on a mission to fund the latest medical equipment, support services and furnishings for KCMH 2.0. That means the people of Eastern PEI can count on exceptional care, in an inspiring environment for our wonderful staff.

Who pays for what

The Province of Prince Edward Island and Health PEI are responsible for building the hospital. The Foundation supports the furniture, fixtures and equipment that make it ready for patients.

Where it will be

The province has acquired 84.7 acres in the Town of Three Rivers, on the outskirts of Montague off AA MacDonald Road. The site is central and accessible, and it will also be home to a new community health centre.
