Testimonials:
“In 1993 we began a ‘scholarship fund’ for Cardiac Rehab patients who didn’t have insurance coverage for the post-event rehabilitation necessary to regain their quality of life. The improvements we have seen in their lives and their ability to take an active role in their own recovery has been phenomenal.”
–Jan Harper, RN Director, CoxHealth
“Skaggs Foundation helps make possible quality healthcare for our community. I’m proud of the facilities, professional medical staff and service we are able to provide to those in our community who don’t have to travel long distance for their healthcare.”
–Karen Hall, Skaggs Foundation Board of Directors
“The Skaggs Foundation Legacy Grant has allowed us to increase patient accessibility, accept walk-in’s and provide same day appointments for patients with acute illnesses. In the first three months alone, we were able to serve 305 more patients -- a 140% increase over the prior year. Now, many more hurting people are finding the help they need.”
–Linda Towler, Faith Community Health Center
