The High River District Health Care Foundation is basking in the glow of another successful fundraiser.

Fund development coordinator Cathy Couey says local residents got into the Christmas spirit again recognizing loved ones through the Points of Light campaign.

"Our Points of Light programs, which is always a really popular program, was a huge success raising over $20,000, and those proceeds will go to supporting palliative and spiritual care," Couey says.

They were able to raise a bit more than they did last year with Points of Light.

She says despite everything it's been a good year for the Foundation and they're very aware of the support and the way the community rallies around the hospital and the health care teams.
