USask health centre celebrates new name, receives gift toward development of rural health and wellness unit

The University of Saskatchewan’s rural health centre has received a $1.5M gift to expand its programming and services and support the development of a mobile unit for rural health and wellness. The centre, which was renamed the Canadian Centre for Rural and Agricultural Health earlier this summer, works toward enhancing the health and wellbeing of agricultural and rural populations. USask also recently received $500K from alumnus Dr Karim Nasser, a lifelong tennis fan, to repair and sustain the campus’s tennis courts.
