Grace Cottage Foundation
The Gift of Giving

On behalf of all of Grace Cottage's patients, thank you for giving so generously to the annual end-of-year appeal. A total of 481 households donated just over $140,000, and all of these gifts are being used to support the mission of Grace Cottage Hospital. Your gifts make a big difference, and are greatly appreciated.

It's gratifying to see the kind of support that Grace Cottage Hospital engenders from throughout the land, and beyond! End-of-year gifts came from 26 states (AZ, CA, CO, CT, DE, FL, GA, IL, MA, MD, ME, MN, MO, NC, NH, NJ, NY, OH, PA, RI, SC, TX, VA, VT, WV, WY), as well as Washington, D.C., Canada and Great Britain.

Many generous local organizations also contributed to the end-of-year campaign, including Masons, Knights of Columbus, VFW, Moose, Eagles, Townshend Historical Society, Newfane Flea Market Parking donations, and the Vermont Antiques Dealers' Association. The Windham Foundation, the Thomas Thompson Trust and the Winhall Industrial Society also gave their support to Grace Cottage.

In addition to the Community Wellness Center grant , the Fanny Holt Ames and Edna Louise Holt Fund awarded Grace Cottage with a grant towards the purchase of Electronic Medical Records software (EMR) for the physicians' offices. The EMR system, E-Clinical Works, is being purchased and implemented this year. Another grant towards the establishment of a Family Practice Physician Fellowship was also awarded. New physicians are being recruited while they are still completing their medical residency programs.
