Riverside Foundation for Health Care is officially launching its fundraising campaign for a new digital mammography unit next month.

It will do so with a bicycle ride September 11th from Rainy River to Fort Frances.

Campaign spokesperson Tanya Cumming says they're looking for riders.

Cumming says the ride isn't to collect funds, but they won't turn aside donations if given.

The Foundation is hoping to raise $650,000 for the unit to be located at LaVerendrye Hospital in Fort Frances.

Those interesting in taking part in the ride are asked to contact the Foundation office 274-4803.
