The Bettie Jane Cancer Foundation recently presented Frederick Health with a contribution of $25,000 to benefit the ReEnvisioning Critical Care Campaign to renovate and expand the hospital’s Emergency Department, Intensive Care Unit, and Interventional Cardiology Services. “The mission of the Bettie Jane Cancer Foundation is to provide financial support to cancer patients in need. The majority of the Foundation’s applicants receive their cancer care from Frederick Health so supporting the hospital that is also serving our clients makes sense,” stated Kathryn Landis-Bogush, President, Bettie Jane Cancer Foundation. “We have contributed to the construction of the James M Stockman Cancer Institute and are now pleased to support the hospital’s Intensive Care Unit and especially the creation of an organ-donor tribute wall which will serve as a lasting tribute to those individuals who have helped save and heal the lives of others through their selflessness.” “Frederick Health is grateful to The Bettie Jane Cancer Foundation, not only for their continued generosity to the hospital, but also for the critical support they are providing local cancer patients who are facing a variety of challenges as a result of their diagnosis,” stated Cheryl Cioffi, Executive Vice President & Chief Administrative Officer, Frederick Health. “We applaud their passion and service to the community. The charitable support the Foundation has provided and continues to provide to Frederick Health is helping us ensure that our patients receive the very best care at all stages of their healthcare journey.” The Bettie Jane Cancer Foundation is recognized as a member of the Frederick Health Corporate Honor Roll. The Frederick Health Corporate Honor Roll was established more than 30 years ago to provide financial support for Frederick Health’s strategic capital goals. The Corporate Honor Roll roster includes a diverse group of more than 100 local businesses, organizations, and foundations dedicated to helping the hospital meet the healthcare needs of Frederick’s growing population.
