Thank You for 30 Years of Caring!

The Foundation is commemorating its 30th anniversary this year, all thanks to amazing individuals like you who have been by our side since 1994 and are dedicated to investing in the future. Through your support, we can continue our legacy of delivering exceptional medical care to our community, regardless of a patient's financial means.

As an employee of Methodist Jennie Edmundson Hospital, each day, you make a difference in the lives of people throughout our community. Your compassion and commitment demonstrate the truth of our Jennie Cares motto. Choosing to become a member of the employee caring campaign is an opportunity to take this spirit of caring to the next level by showing that you believe in our hospital's mission strongly enough to support it above and beyond your everyday work. 

It is a team effort that requires the work of many to help just one. Knowing that each patient touched by our work here goes on to touch the lives of their friends, family, and neighbors, allows us to truly feel the impact of our care. We appreciate your dedication to assisting others, and we hope you will join us as a member of the employee giving campaign.
