Foundation secures $40,000 donation toward CT project, board hears

Members of the hospital foundation reported that the foundation had received a $40,000 contribution from Barbara Crow and her husband toward a planned CT‑scanner project. The board heard that the donation reduces the outstanding loan or service agreement balance on the facility's current CT machine and brings the project closer to funding.

The foundation committee said the donor contribution will help cover replacement or service costs and that the committee continues fundraising and planning work for the CT project. No formal board vote was recorded for accepting the donation in the transcript excerpted; the foundation update was informational.

Why it matters: the gift advances a capital project intended to sustain local diagnostic imaging services and reduce the hospital’s net cost for CT equipment and service agreements.

Next steps: foundation and hospital staff will continue fundraising and report updates to the board.
