Deer's Head Hospital Auxiliary Grant
June 22, 2009
The Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore (CFES) has awarded $2,000 to assist low income patients of the Deer's Head Center Outpatient Dialysis Program. In recent months an increasing number of dialysis patients have been unable to make scheduled appointments because they could not afford transportation or prescriptions related to the treatments. The grant will provide some emergency assistance for qualifying patients. The grant was made from donations to the Foundation's Help Your Neighbor Campaign that provides assistance to nonprofit agencies on the Lower Eastern Shore that provide critical support for basic needs. Pictured (l to r) are: Erica Joseph, Foundation Program Officer; Helen Young, Deer's Head Director of Volunteer Services; and Marie Kenney, a Dialysis Social Worker at the Center. Donations are still being accepted for the Help Your Neighbor Campaign. To participate visit www.cfes.org.
