BUCKHANNON, W.VA. – The WVU Medicine St. Joseph’s Hospital Auxiliary presented a donation of $10,000 to the St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation for its Every Heartbeat Matters Campaign.
The campaign will provide funds for needed equipment, including a transesophageal ultrasound probe that will allow physicians to see the back of the heart and equipment for the hospital’s Cardiac Rehabilitation Program.
“We want to say a special ‘thank you’ to the members of the St. Joseph’s Hospital Auxiliary,” John Haskins, Foundation Board president, said. “Their support of this important campaign for the hospital is greatly appreciated.”
Auxiliary President Patty McComas and Treasurer Marilyn Walton presented the check to Haskins and Hospital President Skip Gjolberg.
The St. Joseph’s Foundation was formed in 1994 with its primary goals being to actively secure charitable support, to develop relationships with community and business leaders, and to advocate and promote the hospital’s mission.
