Programs, Projects, & Events
The Health Center Foundation hosts several programs, projects, and events annually. The HCF is committed to establishing a solid infrastructure of high-quality healthcare services and providers for the residents of our community.
Programs
Each year the HCF awards two summer internships, two Thayer Family Scholarships, and one Robert P. Goodwin Scholarship to students wanting to become healthcare professionals or those continuing their education. Additionally, the HCF oversees the Thompson Foundation Orthodontia program for those in need.
Projects
The HCF board of directors selects a priority project annually. In 2023, the board approved supporting SRMC with two projects: they helped purchase a new MRI Scanner and chose to be involved with the new Pole Creek Estates Long-Term Care project.
