Now, many new resources are available locally such as comprehensive cancer treatment, cardiac surgery, infectious disease treatment, cardiac catheterization and other procedures which have improved the quality of life. The Development Foundation supports these services through your gifts. Future health care needs of your family and neighbors may depend on Akron General's ability to provide specialized services. The Development Foundation Board of Trustees is comprised of 21 community leaders charged by Akron General Medical Center to oversee the management of the Development Foundation. The Foundation has established a permanent trust to support the operation of the office and a restricted trust to support the donor-designated funds.
Interest is accrued to each individual account and used according to the donor restricted purpose.
The Development Foundation devotes funds to improving the quality of health care services of Akron General Medical Center. Requests for funding support are made by the individual departments of Akron General or by the Board of Trustees. Your gifts have made this possible. Your attorney can reach us by phone, or we will meet with you personally. The name has changed over the years, but the hospital's commitment to quality patient-care services has remained unchanged.
