Summary

The Health Commission voted to recommend acceptance and expenditure of a $200,000 gift from the Joan Kelly Bridal Trust to Laguna Honda's gift fund; the motion passed by roll call without public comment.

The Health Commission voted to recommend the Board of Supervisors authorize the Department of Public Health to accept and expend a $200,000 gift to Laguna Honda Hospital from the Joan Kelly Bridal Trust.

William Frasier, the Laguna Honda gift-fund program manager, introduced the request and described the donor's family connection to a resident who received care at Laguna Honda. After brief questions from commissioners and no public comment, the commission moved, seconded and approved the recommendation by roll call. The recorded votes on the action were unanimous 'yes.'

Why it matters: the gift will be added to the Laguna Honda gift fund to support hospital activities; the commission's recommendation is a formal step before the Board of Supervisors authorizes the acceptance and expenditure.

Next steps: the commission forwarded the recommendation to the Board of Supervisors for final authorization and the department will report back on the use of the funds as required by city gift-acceptance procedures.
