The Medicine Hat Health Foundation celebrates National Philanthropy Day

November 15 is National Philanthropy Day.

Each year the Medicine Hat Health Foundation (MHHF) recognizes and expresses our gratitude to our philanthropic community for their continued generosity. The impact our donors make can be seen every day in the quality of healthcare equipment, spaces, and programs available to patients at the Medicine Hat Regional Hospital and in Southeast Alberta.

Our community of philanthropists directly contributes to lives saved, and to the physical and mental wellbeing of our patients. When someone chooses to support the MHHF, they are investing in the quality of care they receive, and which their loved ones receive. We want to thank our supporters for joining us on our mission to advance the health of our community through innovation and enhancements to healthcare services.

On November 13 – the Friday before National Philanthropy Day – philanthropists that have supported the MHHF can expect a call from our staff as we take part in our annual Thank-A-Thon. We like to reach out to our supporters over the phone and let them know that we appreciate their shared conviction and commitment to advancing local healthcare.

This year we will also be renewing our proclamation with Mayor Linnsie Clark and the Medicine Hat City Council.
