ith today's high cost of providing medical care, hospitals often do
not have enough funds for services, programs, and much needed
equipment, that's the catalyst behind the inception of the Cape
Fear Valley Health Foundation.
The philanthropic arm of Cape Fear Valley Health System began 19 years
ago, when then CEO John Carlisle approached trustees with the idea. From
there, a core team of four men charted a course for the Cape Fear Valley Health
Foundation that launched programs and support making it a powerful force in
our community benefitting many. They support every aspect of the hospital and
its programs.
The infrastructure forged ahead under the leadership of John Buie, Tony
Cimaglia, Dr. Harold Godwin and Leonard Hedgepath. Today the Foundation
stands countless volunteers strong with 21 on the board.
"The citizens of the Cape Fear Valley region are without a doubt some of the
most generous people I have ever had the pleasure of serving," affirmed John
Buie.
With Mike Nagowski at the helm, his visionary leadership has made CFVH
system competitive with the likes of what larger cities offer.
CFVHF programs fund needs that the hospital might otherwise not have
funding for. The Foundation helped to reestablish a stroke rehab center and to
update essential equipment like ultrasound machines.
Money raised through Friends of the Cancer Center provides direct patient
support in terms of financial needs based assistance for the day-to-day
needs like medication assistance, providing wigs, turbans and nutritional
supplements. There is also a free monthly mammogram program, at no cost to
lower income women.
"We are here to support the health system in any way it needs supported,"
said the Foundation's Executive Director Sabrina Brooks. "We want to provide
the best care to the entire population of our region, the more we can provide
exceptional services here, patients don't have to travel."
Another unique opportunity funded by the Arts Council is an arts therapy
program. The program, Art for Reflections, is offered to all patients once a week
where an art therapist helps them deal with a diagnosis through a creative
outlet. "It's another way to deal with cancer diagnosis," said Brooks.
The Foundation remains fully funded thanks to the community bolstering
their efforts with signature events each year.
This year in support of children's services, the annual Friends of Children golf
tournament raised $200,000 and has grown to two flights of golf with over 170
golfers participating.
The Circle of Friends Gala, held at the Highland Country Club sold nearly 500
tickets in 2015. Half of the proceeds from the event were earmarked for a new
neuroscience center.
"We have a very engaged Board of Directors. They are out in the community
talking about our mission every single day," said Brooks proudly. "The most
rewarding part of my job is to know the difference we are making in people's
lives everyday through healthcare and support the Foundation provides."
CFVHF illustrates the power of philanthropy and its crucial role in building
a healthier society. Philanthropic gifts allow Cape Fear Valley to invest in new
technology, pursue leading edge research and treat those who might otherwise
be untreatable, right here in our own backyard. When you receive care at Cape
Fear Valley, you become part of their family. Their commitment to your health
and well-being extends beyond the borders of just you and affects your loved
ones and generations to come.
