Press Release

May 7, 2009

To the Editor:

May is a month where hospitals and nurses are recognized around the nation for their contributions to quality health care. At Burgess Foundation, we are pleased to nurture support for our community hospital, Burgess Health Center, by recruiting the time, talent and treasure of stakeholders.

The charitable projects of our Foundation have helped fund the renovation and expansion of Burgess and bring new technology to its Laboratory, Radiology, Physical Therapy, Pharmacy, Family Beginnings and other patient care areas.

Our upcoming golf event on May 31 will support a benefit for men's health - the purchase of an ultrasound transducer for prostate exams.

We could not do all this without the amazing support of our donors, volunteers, citizens, businesses, patients, employees, medical staff and others. This May, Burgess Foundation extends a heartfelt THANK YOU to all of you who support our vision to continually provide financial support to Burgess Health Center.

Sincerely

Shirley Bruegger

Burgess Foundation Director
