The Martin Memorial Foundation has been helping provide Treasure Coast residents with exceptional health care for more than 25 years. Now, the Foundation has launched a new Web site that makes it easier than ever to see how philanthropy is making a difference in the lives of Martin and St. Lucie county residents.
The new site, GIVEmmhs.org, allows potential donors to go online when they are considering making a future gift. There, they can learn where the money goes, hear inspiring donor stories, sign up for an event, calculate how much they would benefit from deferred gifts, and make a gift safely and securely. The site also includes information and updates on new gifts and programs through the Foundation. Later in the year, the site will host online communities for Foundation volunteer groups, including committee members for events such as the Chrysanthemum Ball and Goombay Bash.
“This is an exciting opportunity for us to continue engaging community members in a way that is easy and convenient for them to use,” said Arthur M. “Rusty” Brink Jr., vice president and chief philanthropic officer for Martin Memorial. “The Web site will be a valuable resource for anyone who wants to discover the powerful impact philanthropy has on health care.”
The Martin Memorial Foundation was created in 1983 and has raised approximately $97 million since its inception, helping to fulfill the health system’s mission of providing access to the very best care and services available. Gifts to the Foundation have been the driving force behind some of Martin Memorial’s key services, including: the Frances Langford Heart Center; the Robert and Carol Weissman Cancer Center; the Martin Memorial Hospital South Emergency Department; and the David L. Smythe Wound Center as well as the David L. Smythe Center for Children.
Gifts to the Foundation have also helped purchase sophisticated, lifesaving technology such as a PET/CT scanner; 64-slice CT scanner; two cardiac catheterization labs; Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy equipment; and a Picture Archiving and Communication System.
