Program accomplishments

  • The Good Samaritan Health Services Foundation's stated mission is to support the mission of the Good Samaritan Hospital Association, to "Advance the physical and spiritual wellbeing of the communities we serve." GSHS Foundation board members and staff support this mission primarily through fundraising and by acting as goodwill ambassadors for GSHA. The Foundation solicits, documents, and manages donations from individuals, businesses, nonprofit organizations, and other foundations, ensuring that donor-designated contributions are invested as directed. The GSHS Foundation director seeks grants in support of GSHA's strategic plan and helps to manage the grants once they are received. Additionally, the Foundation hosts two fundraisers each year, a social event and a golf tournament. In fiscal year 26, the Greatest Needs Gala was held in April and the Charity Golf Classic was held in July. The proceeds from the Gala were used to support the HAMC Hospice Program and the Golf proceeds were used to continue supporting the mission of GSHA.
