A Letter From Our Board
DEAR FRIENDS,
As we reflect on this past year, we are filled with immense gratitude for the generosity, commitment, and partnership shown by our community of donors. Through your support, St. John’s Health Foundation has been able to make a substantial impact on the quality and breadth of healthcare services available here at our independent health system, St. John’s Health. Your contributions have truly made a difference in the lives of countless patients and families, and for that, we are deeply thankful.
St. John’s Health is more than just a place for healing; it is a cornerstone of health and hope for our community. As an independent health system, we can prioritize care over profit and address the unique needs of our area, a rare approach in today’s healthcare landscape.
The steadfast support from St. John’s Health Foundation empowers St. John’s Health to enhance vital services, invest in advanced technology, provide essential educational opportunities for our staff, and tackle pressing housing issues for our staff; ensuring compassionate, high-quality care for generations to come. As we look to the future, continued philanthropic support is crucial to advancing our mission, preserving the independence of our health system, and fostering sustainable community solutions. We invite you to explore the impact your contributions have had on the following pages.
