2009 Annual Fund Raising Event We celebrated our 30th Anniversary this past October during our 3rd Annual Fund Raising Event at the Point Restaurant located in the Huntsman Cancer Institute. Our guest speaker was Dr. Stephen D. Ratcliffe, one of CHC’s first medical directors. Dr. Ratcliffe and his family flew here from Pennsylvania for a vacation and at the same time to take a moment or two to reflect on Community Health Centers, Inc. While Dr. Ratcliffe spent sometime reminiscing about his younger years at CHC, he also took time to discuss the importance and impacts of Community Health Centers, Inc. One thing that stuck with me was the number of children our doctors have delivered...around 25,000 over the 30 years. That’s a small city!!!
Over 147 people attended the event - some friends of Dr. Ratcliffe’s and some friends of Community Health Centers, Inc. Although the event was free to those wanting to attend, 62% donated funds to further our mission in the Greater Salt Lake Area. The event raised $15,425 for patient care. David and Dallas Dutson were recognized for donating the money they had saved for a trip to Disneyland to CHC. Gerry Marty and Daniel Hacking were recognized for their years of service on the board of governors.
