Schneck Foundation

The Schneck Foundation was founded to encourage, hold, and administer gifts to the hospital. The members of its board are dedicated to this activity and to being goodwill ambassadors to the people in the communities served by the hospital.
 

The vision of the Schneck Foundation is to expand opportunity for donations and to expand and consistently reevaluate the programs and use of the funds in support of the hospital.
 

The Schneck Foundation was formed in 1953 to help finance the hospital's 1957 addition with contributions from the community. Since then, projects sponsored entirely, or in part, by the foundation include:

  • A special procedures surgery suite in the 1971 Building Construction Program
  • The Lifeline personal response system
  • A van used by Home Health Services
  • The Schneck Medical Center booth at the annual Jackson County Fair
  • The corridor that connects the hospital with the Jackson County Medical Building
  • Daily newspapers that are delivered to hospitalized patients by guild volunteers
  • Scholarships for Jackson and Jennings County residents who are pursuing courses of study that will lead to technical/professional allied health careers. More than $75,000 have been awarded since this program was established in 1992
  • The Schneck Cancer Center
