CHI Memorial Foundation Recognized With "Stewardship" And "Values" Awards
Wednesday, February 17, 2021
CHI Memorial Foundation was recognized for its stewardship and values. The Foundation received the Model Stewardship Award and Jennifer Nicely, CHI Memorial Foundation president, received the Philanthropy Values Award during the CommonSpirit Health’s annual Philanthropy Education Summit.
The Model Stewardship Award recognizes the impact that the dollars raised make in CommonSpirit Health’s hospitals. Those funds provide new equipment, improved buildings and programs that support patients and caregivers.
CHI Memorial Foundation transferred more than $3.2 million to the hospital last year – nearly 10 times greater than its transfers in the previous year. The Foundation was efficient – transferring five times the Foundation’s operating expenses. The staff also raised five and a half dollars for every dollar invested.
