#WhyIGive

Donate Now

#WhyIGive is a campaign highlighting some of the many RRH employees who support the efforts of the RRH Foundation through regular giving. For them, we are truly grateful.

Joe Furtado"During the 10 years I’ve called the Indian Wells Valley home, I’ve watched Ridgecrest Regional Hospital grow and prosper. Most of all, I’ve seen the hospital become one of our valley’s most active and enthusiastic corporate citizens. Any time our community gathers to celebrate, commemorate, or work toward a common goal, RRH is there, giving back to our families and friends. In a nutshell, Ridgecrest Regional Hospital just helps make the Indian Wells Valley a better place to live – for all of us. Giving to the RRH Development Foundation lets me actively participate in that tradition of giving back – to proudly support our hospital’s and our valley’s future. There’s no better investment than that."
~Joe, Manager, Outpatient/LTC Pharmacy Services
