In America it is hard to believe that people don’t have what they need when it comes to healthcare, but we see it every day. It is gutting to watch a patient be discharged from the hospital and not have a ride home. Or to know that they don’t have the money to fill the prescription that will keep them healthy and out of the hospital. Or to see a patient not have a ride to their chemotherapy. Or to know that a patient has to move to a nursing home because they can’t afford a stair glide to get them to their second floor.
St. Margaret Foundation fills in these heartbreaking gaps in medical coverage with hope, healing, and independence for patients at St. Margaret Hospital. Donations do not pay hospital or doctors’ office charges – only for the urgent needs that fall through the gaps for patients in crisis. We pledge to walk 4 miles two days a week or play pickle ball two days a week in the month of May to help these patients in crisis and ask you to sponsor us in the process. We hope you will support us in the St. Margaret Foundation Hope Challenge because sometimes you are the only friend a patient has.
Thank you.
Mary Lee and Arnie
