Meet Everyday Needs

Funds raised through the Circle of Friends enable us to help wherever there’s a need. For some, that means simple enhancements in care, like the Carle Auxiliary Guest House or the CARE Channel, offering in-hospital programming that relieves stress and supports effective pain management. For others, your gift is more critical, providing medicine and medical equipment for patients with serious health needs and limited financial resources. From parish nursing to our Safe Sitters program, you gift extends our mission from the corridors of Carle into a community in need.

Through your annual membership in the Carle Circle of Friends, you can continue the tradition of excellence and keep Carle on the leading edge of medicine, providing funds for nursing education and medical scholarships that will help us train the next generation of medical leaders. From breast cancer and cardiology to studies in neuroscience, your gift can also fund vital medical research that may one day revolutionize the way care is provided to patients with serious medical needs.

If research provides hope for tomorrow, capital funding provides the facilities and equipment that patients need today. From Mills Breast Cancer Institute to the new ECHO building, funds from the Circle of Friends enable us to complete major additions to our medical campus, giving patients big and small the help they need here and now.
