Ruth Kovac Blood Donor Clinic
Councillor Ruth Kovac believed that there was no greater gift than the gift of life. Councillor Kovac organized her first blood donor clinic in 1984 with the Mount Sinai Auxiliary and then every year since 1988 with the City of Côte Saint-Luc. She herself donated blood more than 40 times. Councillor Kovac passed away on October 1, 2019. The City of Côte Saint-Luc is honouring her memory by naming its annual blood donor clinic The Ruth Kovac Blood Donor Clinic.
