Events and Campaigns

Ticket To Ride
With continuing support from Tom Dinsdale Automotive, Ticket to Ride is an event not to miss. While all participants are winners by building a healthy community, the lucky grand prize winner of this high-stakes raffle has their choice of a vehicle or $15,000 cash. And while the events are about having a good time, they are really about contributing to a good cause. Proceeds from Ticket to Ride support Saint Francis Medical Center cancer care services.

Hullabaloo for a Healthy Community
On Saturday, Jan. 26, the public is invited to dine on a supper and dessert buffet before dancing the night away to Whiskey Bent and BD & The Boys. With the support of area restaurants and the hard work of numerous volunteers, Hullabaloo is a great way to beat the winter doldrums and support the Saint Francis Foundation.

Employee Campaign
Each year the employee of Saint Francis Medical Center generously support the employee campaign to support programs at the medical center as well as in the community.

In the 2011-2012 campaign, through the donations of 401 donors, $120,968 was raised. This campaign raised dollars for the following programs:

  • Digital Mammography
  • Area of Greatest Need
  • Community Health Charities
  • Employee Stewardship Program
  • Foundation Endowment
  • Heartland United Way
  • Project Care

Thank you to every employee who made a pledge, cash gift or PTO donation. Each gift was vitally important to the campaign.

Tree of Love
During the Christmas season of peace, faith, hope and love, the Saint Francis Foundation invites people to remember someone special and give a gift to the entire community.

You are invited to create a Tree of Love ornament as a tribute to a friend or loved one who has touched your life. The Tree of Love is displayed in the main lobby of Saint Francis Medical Center through the holiday season. You will also be invited to attend the Tree of Love Vigil.
