Memorial Health Foundation raises and invests funds to support the work of our Memorial Health System family. By investing our funds wisely, we are able to strengthen the healthcare we offer here at home and reach our goals of having a happier and healthier community. This includes funds for research and equipment, education for our medical professionals, and effective care environments for all.

Every year, Memorial Health Foundation sponsors and hosts several events to benefit a designated cause within Memorial Health System. These events bring together our community to raise awareness and support for our Strecker Cancer Center Patient Fund, Selby General Hospital, home and hospice, as well as our other funds we have to assist our patients' needs.

Fashion Show

Our annual fashion show brings together local businesses', Strecker Cancer Center survivors, and a fun filled evening for our community. Proceeds from this event go directly towards our Strecker Cancer Center Patient Fund. This fund provides patients with prescription drug assistance, medical supplies, gas cards, and helps with any other needs a patient might have during their treatment at Strecker Cancer Center.

Selby Golf Outing

Our Selby Golf Outing is a fun filled day full of golf benefiting the greatest area of need at Selby General Hospital. Your fee for the tournament includes green fees, golf cart, boxed lunch, reception, and dinner. Each year, prizes are awarded to the first, second, and third place teams. Skill prizes are awarded on every hole. Individuals or companies can also sponsor individual holes at the event to further support Selby General Hospital.

Love Lights

Since 1991, Love Lights has provided an opportunity for people in our community to honor friends and loved ones with beautifully glowing holiday lights. Dedicating a Light of Love is a brilliant way to commemorate a very special person or celebrate how much someone means to you. Love Lights is an opportunity for our community to honor their loved ones while supporting heart and hospice needs.

5K Fund Run Our annual Memorial Health System Fund Run 5K is an awareness and fundraising event held every fall that benefits the health of our community. Proceeds from the race directly support three funds housed within Memorial Health Foundation: Stroke Support (Bridges Forward), Diabetes Education, and Bariatric Exercise Program. Included below is additional information on each:

• Stroke Support (Bridges Forward) provides community-based exercise programs for stroke or neurologically injured individuals.
• Diabetes Education provides educational support at low or no cost to patients needing support and living with diabetes.
• Bariatric Exercise Program provides exercise program opportunities to patients wanting to improve their health and lose weight.

We need your continued support for our Annual Appeal. Donors may direct contributions where funds are most needed or to specific programs that mean the most to them and their families. This gift is 100% tax-deductible and helps expand services, purchase new technology, implement programs for families, and much more. all that we offer this community to live and learn.
