The St. Bernardine Medical Center Foundation announces the Kickoff Luncheon of the premier donor group, “Women of St. Bernardine." The luncheon is set for Thursday, Sept. 18, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Rezek Centre Pavillion at St. Bernardine Medical Center, located on the corner of Waterman and Highland Avenues. The lunch will feature a presentation by San Bernardino County Supervisor Josie Gonzales, District 5. Women who attend will meet the group's founding members and learn about the impact the group hopes to have on St. Bernardine Medical Center and the surrounding community. The Women of St. Bernardine is a donor group consisting of women who have the goal of providing financial support to Dignity Health St. Bernardine Medical Center to impact and improve the medical services to its patients, as well as its mission of charity to help the citizens of the surrounding community. These women follow in the footsteps and tradition of commitment of the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word, without whom there would be no St. Bernardine Medical Center. Any woman joining The Women of St. Bernardine this year at a minimum donation of $1,000 will be considered a founding member and will be presented with a unique and one-time gift that signifies her participation and membership. Besides the kickoff luncheon held in September, all members will be invited to subsequent lunches or dinners that will showcase service lines of the Medical Center and community/patient programs in need of financial support. Only members will be able to vote on where their collected funds will be applied. The Women of St. Bernardine will be invited to various exclusive events and activities promoted by the Foundation, and will also receive recognition in its annual gala program as major donors to St. Bernardine Medical Center Foundation. All members of the Women of St. Bernardine are required to make a gift of $1,000 or more during the fiscal year of July 2014 through June 2015. This tax-deductible gift can be broken up into monthly, quarterly, or bi-annual payments, when necessary. All proceeds of this gift are collected and given out to the hospital service line or Mission Services area where the majority of membership votes are applied. Seating is limited so please RSVP by Sept. 11, by either calling Regina Webster at 909-475-2609 or email Regina.Webster@DignityHealth.org.
