Community Memorial Hospital Foundation…
Supporting excellence in health care, right here at home

The
Community Memorial Hospital Foundation is a volunteer organization that works to promote and support the hospital and nursing home through fundraising and the solicitation of donations. The Foundation’s fundraising efforts assist in upgrading medical equipment, enhancing medical services, and updating facility space to maximize usage. New equipment that helps keep CMH vital is made possible because of the dedication of Foundation board members and its volunteers.
