Eastern Maine Medical Center recognizes Lights of Life honorees

Date: 01/02/2023

This holiday season, we invite you to join us for our 22nd annual Lights of Life at Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center. You can help our holiday tree at Lafayette Family Cancer Institute shine brightly by purchasing a light to memorialize or honor caregivers and those affected by cancer. Your thoughtful gift will not only pay tribute to the person you’ve chosen and brighten our tree, but it will also help support care for patients in our community.

View the tree lighting virtually on Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center’s Facebook Page.

Every light reserved for the tree supports the exceptional care provided at Northern Light Care Care. 

Lights may be purchased through December 31, 2022 at northernlighthealth.org/EMMCLights.
