Veterans Memorial Health Care Foundation makes Sizable Donation to new Postville Clinic

The Veterans Memorial Health Care Foundation has committed to a very generous donation of $50,000 to the renovation for the new medical clinic in Postville.  This donation brings the total raised to date of just over $140,000, moving the project closer to its $200,00 goal.  Donations are being accepted and construction is expected to begin as soon as the fundraising goal is reached.

Recent fundraisers sponsored by the Foundation will fund this donation to the new Postville Clinic.  The new clinic will have an additional three exam rooms for a total of five, plus a new procedure room and lab area.  There will also be a new behavioral health clinic area designed for private consultations in a more comfortable, confidential atmosphere, as well as additional office space.    For more information on how to make a cash donation or other forms of donations with great tax benefits, please call Beth Shafter, Growth and Development Coordinator at Veterans Memorial Hospital at 568-3411.
