Donations given to the Foundation are used to purchase medical equipment, fund research, provide healthcare scholarships, and assist Kadlec patients and programs. (See below for a listing of 2007 fundings).
Gifts may be made in memory of a deceased relative or friend. Or to honor a birthday, anniversary, graduation, wedding or any event that calls for a special gesture. These tax-deductible gifts may also be a simple way to share appreciation for a special kindness shown or excellent care received.
The Foundation is governed by a board of community volunteers who generously contribute their time and money.
