Woodland Healthcare Foundation recently hosted our bi-annual Fairchild & Legacy Societies Celebration, recognizing our Fairchild Society members (donors who have made lifetime gifts totaling $25,000 or more) and Legacy Society members (those who have included Woodland Healthcare Foundation in their estate plans).

During our celebration, we were honored to welcome several new members into our Fairchild & Legacy Societies and presented several awards, which we invite you to read about in this issue.

We are deeply grateful for the steadfast support of all of our donors, which helps provide high-quality, compassionate care to our families, friends and neighbors.

Your support is testament to your care of this special community.

For more than 50 years, Woodland Clinic Medical Group has been a loyal philanthropic partner of Woodland Healthcare Foundation, supporting many campaigns, including the initiative to provide state-of-the-art equipment for our Emergency Department, the launch of the Yolo County Mobile Medicine Program, and more. Most recently, they supported Yolo Adult Day Health Center—which provides assistance to disabled adults to help manage chronic health conditions related to illness, injury or cognitive impairment.

We appreciate each talented and caring Woodland Clinic Medical Group clinician for providing our community with exceptional medical care and for the Group's outstanding generosity.

Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation is committed to building strong communities and helping those in need—and all of us at Woodland Healthcare are grateful for their steadfast support and are humbled by their generosity. An incredible partner of Woodland Healthcare Foundation for over 17 years, they have supported the purchase of new and advanced medical equipment, and given to campaigns for the Emergency Department, Advanced Imaging and Surgical Services, and Yolo Adult Day Health Center. It is truly our great honor to partner with Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation.

Their exceptional generosity strengthens our region and helps save and improve the lives of those around us.

Thank you to all our honorees for their exceptional generosity and dedication to the health of our community!

At our celebration, we shared a video detailing the many ways your support changes lives in our community—to watch the video and to see photos from the event, please visit: supportwoodlandhealthcare.org/fairchild-legacy/2024
