The Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation is recognizing the impactful contributions of Les Dubé and his wife following his passing last week.

A release from the JPCH Foundation says Les and Irene Dubé have made a lasting impact on the landscape of pediatric healthcare. In 2009, the couple made a historic donation of $6.5 million to the JPCH Foundation, which was the largest individual gift made to a pediatric hospital in Western Canada.

The staff at the JPCH Foundation are grateful for Les and Irene Dubé’s contributions to pediatric healthcare, working to ensure that children can receive the best care close to home.
