HCMH Foundation provides $1 million gift to building project


The Humboldt County Memorial Hospital Foundation has announced a gift of $1,000,000 over a 10-year period for the new conference room in the hospital (pictured here).

The Humboldt County Memorial Hospital Foundation has announced a gift of $1,000,000 to the Humboldt County Memorial Hospital 2019 building project.
At the Foundation’s Aug. 22 meeting, Board member Larry Curran made a motion to make a 10-year, $1,000,000 pledge to the Humboldt County Memorial Hospital 2019 building project. It was seconded by Bruce Watnem and all Board members approved.
The pledge represents the largest single gift ever given to the Humboldt County Memorial Hospital. The second largest gift to the hospital from the HCMH Foundation was $870,000 in 1995 for the “Continuing Our Caring Tradition” capital building project which included a new dining and conference area along with many other remodeled areas.
Together with donations made from community members, staff, patients, families and local businesses; this makes the HCMH Foundation the largest benefactor to health care in Humboldt County.
“We are honored to be a part of the building project and to provide a commitment and donation from the Foundation of this size. We believe the new project will be a huge benefit for the community and the people it serves,” Foundation Board President Ashley Emick said.
