Giving Opportunities
Where Help Is Needed Most Fund
A gift to the Where Help Is Needed Most Fund is a simple and meaningful way to support MJHSF. The fund raises unrestricted dollars that can be used immediately for a wide range of needs, and that provide a reliable, steady source of funding for the programs that need it most.
Gifts to this fund of all sizes support:
- Innovative patient care programs
- Annual operating costs, such as funding for social worker positions
- Treatment for patients unable to pay for the care they receive
MJHSF depends on the Where Help Is Needed Most Fund to fulfill its mission of providing compassionate patient care. Your monthly or annual contribution allows patient care at MJHS to continue to function at the high level that the community respects and deserves.
