Check your geography, please

My husband and I received a fundraising request in the mail yesterday from the SMDC Foundation.

It's been about four years since we last donated. (I remember because the donation was made in honor of the doctor who performed our son's bris.)

I haven't donated since, primarily because the hospital's next big push came for building a hospital in Cameroon, Africa. So I was happy to read that their "Soul and Science Campaign" has a goal of raising $9 million to support the health needs of people across our region.

Great, I thought -- until I read the six target areas of the campaign. The final one listed? Construction of a hospital in Cameroon, Africa.
