Eastern Ontario is getting an $11-million donation from the Greenberg family to help the region's fight against cancer.
The Queensway-Carleton Hospital is set to receive $9 million to fund the Irving Greenberg Cancer Centre, which is scheduled to open in the fall of 2009.
The remaining $2 million will go towards the Regional Cancer Foundation.
The donation is the largest gift by an individual family to a single hospital in Eastern Ontario's medical history.
