Your Gifts At Work
Continuing our work into 2008, The Memorial Foundation will be supporting numerous programs critical to the health and well being of our community. View the table below to look at monies allocated in 2007 and the grants we have awarded for 2008.
2007/2008 shows a decrease compared to the very aggressive allocations year 2006/2007. This is due to the ramping up for the major Children's Village Expansion and Hospice House campaigns.
