ABOUT THE FOUNDATION
The RRH Foundation is a fundraising organization that coordinates efforts to
support the hospital through donations and grants. Ridgecrest Regional Hospital
is a non-profit, self-supporting institution. Excellence in healthcare depends
on community support. Your gifts are tax deductible and are used to purchase
much needed equipment.
Since its inception in 1984, the Foundation has raised hundreds of thousands
of dollars which has been used to purchase hospital equipment, such as,
furnishings for two new Labor and Delivery Rooms and a state-of-the-art
treadmill for the Cardiac-Rehab Unit. The Foundation's largest fundraiser
is the annual golf tournament that is held in April of each year.
The Directors of the Foundation are proud of the Hospital and work hard to
support it. If you are interested in learning more about the Foundation or about becoming a
