Donations to the Foundation
The Good Samaritan Health Services Foundation (GSHS) was established in 1987 as the philanthropic arm of the Good Samaritan Hospital Association (GSHA). As a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, your contribution is tax deductible and will make a positive impact on the health of our community by advancing patient care at all
locations of GSHA.
Thanks to the community support and the INSPIRITUS Community Health Foundation, the Heart of America Medical Center EMS Department was able to purchase a new quick response unit for their Avanced Life Support Intercept Program.
The foundation fulfills their mission by holding fundraising campaigns and events, donor development, and overseeing investments made on behalf of the GSHA.
When you decide to donate to GSHS, you are actively contributing to the improvement of healthcare in the communities we serve. Your donation can be directed towards a specific department, program, or area of your choice. Alternatively, you have the option to support the Capital Campaigns (Build 2024 and the Otto Bremer Trust) of GSHS, which plays a significant role in advancing our healthcare facilities. Additionally, by donating to GSHS's Rugby Area Endowment Fund, your gift will continue to benefit both the medical center and the community, addressing their present and future needs for healthcare.
Your generous contribution has a profound impact on the lives of our patients, their families, and the dedicated staff who provide care. We encourage you to invest in the health and well-being of your loved ones by assisting us in meeting the ever-evolving healthcare requirements of our community.
