Through fundraising efforts and community involvement and outreach, Yalobusha Medical Foundation allows Yalobusha Health Services to implement and support programs, services and facilities designed to improve patient care, community health and health education and research. The foundation also provides financial assistance to members of the community for any expenses relating to quality healthcare.
The Foundation will raise money in a variety of ways, including:
• Annual gifts: support through a variety of programs which encourage entry level giving. Yalobusha Health Services has many employees who give a percentage of their salary to the foundation.
• Gifts of Tribute: provide an opportunity to remember those, living or deceased, whose kindness and love have touched our lives. A gift could be made in memory of someone who has passed away, or in honor of someone celebrating a birthday, anniversary, graduation, wedding or retirement. The honored person or family will be notified of the tribute in their honor or memory.
• Planned Gifts: when a person leaves part of his or her estate for the hospital foundation in a will, or establishes a charitable gift annuity or trust.
• Corporate Gifts: business working together to provide better healthcare in the community.
• Fundraising: special events such as golf tournaments, raffles and t-shirt sales.
• Special/Signature Gifts: large, one-time donations from individual donors. Naming opportunities are available.
