Greater Giving

CHCS associates care deeply for our patients and the communities we serve. Our team is skilled, compassionate, and dedicated. We are also generous, and we are known for going the extra mile for our patients. 

The Greater Giving program is flexible and offers associates an opportunity to give back to CHCS. Thank you to all who have contributed! Take a moment to read reports of what we've done in the last two years.

Several funds are available!  

• CHCS Endowment: Everyone should have some money tucked away for a rainy day. The endowment is that for CHCS. It is a permanent savings account invested for the future of CHCS. It takes a while to build, but it can never be taken away or used for some other purpose. It will always be here, growing and earning money to support local healthcare. Contributing to the endowment is a gift that will give forever. Donate through the Caring Community Foundation. 

• Wish List: CHCS departments, long-term care, and clinics may apply for small grants from the once a year the Greater Giving Committee selects three departments and invites them to identify something for their department that will positively impact the way they do their job, improve patient care or the patient experience. Donate by contacting Human Resources to set up a one-time or repeated payroll deduction. Cash or checks are also accepted. Find the Wish List application and guidelines on Power DMS.

• Comfort Closet/Adopt a Family:  A small program with a big heart. If you see some small thing that a patient needs to brighten their day, the Comfort Closet may be able to provide it. We don’t have a closet that we keep things in; we have simple request forms that can be completed, approved, and result in comfort accomplished within a day. This program responds to small personal needs; maximum gift value is suggested at $100. This program is also utilized to buy presents for a community family at Christmas. Donate by contacting Human Resources to set up a one-time or repeated payroll deduction. Cash or checks are also accepted. Find the Comfort Closet application on Power DMS.

• United in Compassion: This program will provide a gift for an employee when hospitalized, in the death of a family member, or when retiring after 10 years of service. This fund will now be available to all employees, not just to those who donate.

• • CHCS Scholarship: We combined two memorial gifts, from Chandler Rowe and Hal Falkenstein, to create the CHCS Scholarship Fund. Currently we can offer $1000 awards to four seniors who will be pursuing a career in healthcare and who are graduating from CHCS family practice clinic towns Donate through the Caring Community Foundation or inquire with Human Resources to set up a one-time or repeated payroll deduction. Cash or checks are also accepted.
