Jones Memorial Hospital celebrates giving Tuesday on December 3rd

WELLSVILLE, NY (November 21, 2019) – This year, Jones Memorial Hospital invites you to “Give Where You Live” by joining the #GivingTuesday movement and making a gift that will help your community hospital continue its mission to provide our patients with the highest quality healthcare. A global generosity movement, Giving Tuesday will be on December 3, 2019.
“The Giving Tuesday goal at Jones Memorial is $50,000,” explained Jodi Pearson, Foundation Coordinator at Jones Memorial. “We have earmarked these funds to enhance our surgical services department with equipment that will support our new surgeon, Dr. Du Nguyen, who has expanded the procedures available locally to including thyroid surgery, lung procedures, and laparoscopic bowel surgery, laparoscopic hernia, and laparoscopic fundoplication.”
Now recognized around the world, #GivingTuesday started as a way to encourage people to do good by supporting causes they care about. This is the first time Jones Memorial has participated in the movement.  “Our theme is Give Where You Live: #GIV2JONES,” said Mrs. Pearson.  “This community has a long tradition of supporting Jones Memorial Hospital and we are proud of the care we provide to our families, friends, and neighbors.”
If you would like to be a part of this event, you can make a gift on line at jones.urmc.edu or by contacting Jodi Pearson at (585) 596-2053 or emailing her at pearsonj@jmhny.org. If you would like to mail your gift, please send it to Jones Memorial Hospital Foundation, 191 North Main Street, Wellsville, New York 14895.
