Hospital gets $1 million gift

NAPLES — The organizers of the Naples Winter Wine Festival awarded a $1 million special grant to Lee Memorial Health System's planned children's hospital in Fort Myers.

Trustees of the Naples Children & Education Foundation presented the award, which will be matched by Naples resident and Paychex founder Thomas Golisano as part of his $20 million matching pledge. The Fort Myers hospital will be named the Golisano Children's Hospital of Southwest Florida when it opens in late 2016.

The Naples wine festival raised $8.5 million earlier this year for children's charities. The foundation says it has served 150,000 underprivileged children with grants to 38 children's charities since 2001.
