As the major source of fund raising for Westfield Memorial Hospital, the Westfield Memorial Hospital Foundation will work with the hospital in providing financial support for the delivery of high quality health care to the residents of the Chautauqua region.

Incorporated in 1978, the Westfield Memorial Hospital Foundation has continued to adhere to its mission. Although it is a separate entity, the foundation exists wholly to financially support Westfield Memorial Hospital by conducting annual campaigns.

Annual Campaigns 

Annual campaigns are conducted each calendar year – January through December.  All contributions are tax-deductible. Contributions may be given by check or credit card; gift-in-kind contributions are also tax-deductible.

Besides annual giving, the foundation has created The Spencer Legacy Society through which you may guarantee that quality health care will be available to serve the community and, at the same time, reduce your tax burden. To become a member, several choices are available to you:
           

• Include the foundation in your estate planning
• Trust fund
• Retirement account/life insurance policy
• Include the foundation in your will

Funding Sources

Philanthropic gifts to the foundation come from several sources, the most important being contributions to each annual fund. Others include:

• Individual contributions, including memorials/honorariums
• Businesses/vendors
• Physicians/associates/hospital and foundations members
• Grants
