What
a terrific year for the 2001 Annual Fund
Campaign! Gifts and pledges from 602 donors
totaled $196,511. Our goal was $150,000.
Gift funds purchased 14 inpatient beds for
Meadville Medical Center's Oncology
Department. These beds are the most
comfortable beds available and provide
maximum pain relief for cancer patients.
The Total Care bed automatically moves a
patient from a lying position to an upright,
sitting position with no effort on the
patient's behalf. This is an enormous
benefit to patients and enables them to keep
moving during medical care.
For Community Health Services (CHS), gift
funds purchased a portable jaundice meter
for newborns. This meter will reduce the
number of blood samples taken from an infant
by visiting nurses and will significantly
reduce infant discomfort.

2001 Annual Fund Campaign) One of the
keys to the success of the 2001 Annual Fund
Campaign was the commitment of time, effort
and leadership of 125 volunteer solicitors,
captains and division chairpersons. Without
their help, we would not be successful. In
addition to the General Chairperson, Kenneth
Montag, our division chairpersons were
Stella Deater, Julie Hovis, Barbara MacBeth,
Leslie Work, Catherine Foster, Dr. Abe
Finton, Clark Hoffman, Dr. Anne Rassiga,
David McMillin, Richard McDermot, Ph.D.,
Mark Strausbaugh and Robert Dornhaffer, Esq.
This leadership team was outstanding and
their commitment to help local health care
was unsurpassed. They were immensely
successful. We sincerely appreciate and
thank our volunteers for their wonderful
commitment of time, effort and leadership.
On behalf of everyone involved with the
Campaign, we extend our sincere thanks to
our donors. You have helped to improve the
high quality of care provided to patients of
our medical center.
