SGMC was approved for the program because of the high-tech cardiology program already established here, increasing numbers of patients whose heart catheterizations showed the need for surgical intervention or angioplasty, and our distance from the nearest open heart surgery facilities. Since May the Foundation has been actively soliciting gifts for the new center. These donations are in the form of corporate and individual gifts. The half-way mark has been reached and they are moving forward very aggressively. Monies donated to the SGMC Foundation will go directly to the Dasher Heart Center, thus bringing a higher quality of health care to those we are so privileged to serve.
Contributions are tax-deductible within the limits of the law.
