Mark the big
day with a
donation
Are your friends
and family
searching for the right gift to mark
your next birthday, anniversary or
other significant milestone? Give
them a hand by sharing this idea:
They could make a donation to
Samaritan Healthcare Foundation
in your name.
Not only will they be helping you
celebrate your big day, they’ll also
be helping us meet the health care
needs of our community.
You, too, may be interested in
becoming a patron. Perhaps, like
many donors, you’d like to acknowl-
edge the excellent care we’ve given
you or a loved one in the past. Or
perhaps you want to help make sure
that such care exists for others in
the future.
Our Foundation gratefully wel-
comes gifts of all kinds.

Foundation, please call

All of us,
for each of you, every time. A simple, yet
powerful, message that serves as a resounding charge
throughout Samaritan Healthcare. The mission of our
organization is clear: to provide consistent, excellent care
to each and every patient and family that receives care at
Samaritan.
The Samaritan Healthcare Foundation has a similar
mission: to ensure the continued availability of high-
quality health care services and programs at Samaritan
Healthcare. We do this through community engage-
ment and fundraising, all working toward educating our
community about the lifesaving services that Samaritan
provides to our local families and friends.
This year, the Foundation has a new goal. Rather than
raising any certain amount for a new piece of equipment,
we will be working toward raising money for the sake of
mission. Dollar for dollar, every penny raised in 2017 will
benefit the various services at Samaritan Healthcare.
These include our Mother/Baby Unit. Funding is
needed to help support the goal of becoming a certified
Baby-Friendly facility, a designation awarded to Wash-
ington state hospitals that provide the highest level of
safety and quality for their tiniest patients.
We will highlight a mission-impact service in each
publication this year to show you, our generous com-
munity members, how your resources make a consider-
able difference in the lives of patients and families served
through Samaritan Healthcare.
If you have questions on what other mission-related
projects we will be fundraising for, please feel free to con-
tact me in the Development & Communications office or
email us at
foundation@samaritanhealthcare.com.
Thank you for your charitable generosity in 2016, we
look forward to sharing our story with you in 2017.
