The Benedictine Health Foundation conducts several major fundraisers each year to benefit Benedictine Hospital. Proceeds from special events help fund scholarships for Nursing Education, the programs and patient care services provided by the Cancer Center, and necessary products and services that are not covered by medical insurance to eligible cancer patients in Ulster County. These are just a few of the vital programs supported by the Foundation’s fundraising efforts.
Following is a calendar of events scheduled for 2010. For information on sponsorship opportunities, event information, or to become a volunteer, please contact Barbara Klassen, Executive Director of the Benedictine Health Foundation at (845) 334-3186 or e-mail: bklassen@benedictine.org.
