$27 Million Campaign to Expand Our ER

Help Us Create Tomorrow’s Care.

Of the 47,000 patients treated in LRMC's ER this year, half will be heart/stroke patients. Our three-story expansion will add 24 private ER rooms, a second 24-room short-stay wing, a third floor shelled-in for future growth, and a glassed walkway to the hospital. By doubling our space, we will be able to provide life-saving care... faster.

Life. Giving.

A generous donor has agreed to match the first $10 million raised. Now, we need you. Gi s can be pledged now, or over multiple years. To discuss leaving your legacy, (naming opportunities are available), contact Ted Williams, President, LRMC Foundation at 352-323-5501 or twilliams@centflhealth.org.

MISSION:

"As a recipient of multiple LSSC Foundation scholarships, I have been able to alleviate the financial burden placed upon my family as I complete my education. I believe the best way to repay the Foundation’s generosity is through excellence in academics and effort on campus. I have become an LSSC ambassador through student life programs and leadership positions at the college. The scholarship opportunities through LSSC have changed the trajectory of my life so that I can fulfill my potential as a student and a leader!"

— Kelly Armstrong President, Society for Advancement of Management Student S.O.A.R. Leader
