NORWICH – One of Norwich’s oldest churches has committed $25,000 toward a new emergency room and walk-in center at UHS Chenango Memorial Hospital.

Parish leaders gathered Tuesday at Emmanuel Episcopal Church to present a ceremonial check to campaign leaders. The pledge is the latest commitment to be announced in the capital campaign, the hospital’s largest fundraising effort in three decades.

“Jesus commands his disciples to love God and love our neighbor,” said Fr. Steve White. “What better way can there be to do that than to help our community, rich and poor alike, obtain high-quality medical care right here in our community?”
