Local Community Philanthropy Benefits Patients and Families of Memorial Healthcare System and Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital

The funds support patients’ families and cover the costs of programs, facilities, and equipment.

Brett Rose and Kevin Janser, the Board Chair and president of the Memorial and Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital Foundations, recently handed over a $15 million check to South Broward Hospital District commissioners. This significant contribution, raised through capital campaigns, is a testament to the community’s commitment to the construction of the Memorial Cancer Institute and the expansion of Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital. The funds from community philanthropy represent the most recent contribution by the foundations, demonstrating the community’s active role in supporting various programs, services, and facilities within the healthcare systems.

“The contributions from our donors have had an immense and meaningful impact, and we feel honored to be beneficiaries of their kindness and goodwill,” Janser says.

Over the last five years, Memorial’s foundations have successfully raised $107 million through fundraising efforts. This substantial amount includes $56 million designated to support the four-story expansion of the children’s hospital.

The Memorial Foundation and Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital Foundation raise funds through community philanthropy to support patients’ families and cover the costs of programs, facilities, and equipment within the Memorial Healthcare System.
