West Virginia University Hospitals-East City Hospital officials announced a $50,000 donation by the City Hospital Auxiliary in support of the $3 million Time Saves Lives capital campaign.
In mid-November, WVUH-East officials launched the pubic phase of the major gifts fundraising campaign to solicit community support to assist in underwriting facility and service enhancements at both City Hospital in Martinsburg and Jefferson Memorial Hospital in Ranson.
The funds raised through Time Saves Lives will support the $31.5 million construction program that began in the spring of 2010 at WVUH-East. Projects already partially funded by the campaign include the emergency department, intensive care unit and cardiac cath lab at City Hospital, and the women’s imaging center at Jefferson Memorial Hospital.
To date, over $2 million has been pledged toward the overall goal. An additional $1 million is needed to fully fund the remaining building projects. Priority projects include equipment for a second cath lab at City Hospital and a new outpatient cancer care and infusion center in the McCormack Center on the City Hospital campus.
For more information on the Time Saves Lives campaign, contact the WVUH-East Foundation office at 304.264.1223 or email rzanotti@wvuh-east.org or tmccabe@wvuh-east.org.
