Posted
Independent Newsmedia
Dignity Health St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center has been awarded a $500,000 grant from Virginia G. Piper Charitable Trust.
The donation is designated to St. Joseph’s Foundation to support the costs incurred at St. Joseph’s Hospital due to the extraordinary events surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a release.
St. Joseph’s, 350 W. Thomas Road in Phoenix, will utilize these funds to maintain the safety and well-being of caregivers on the frontlines treating patients afflicted with this very challenging disease as well as supporting all the researchers, program managers and staff at the hospital doing the critical work to fight this unprecedented fast-moving virus.
“The two organizations have built a legacy of serving the needs of this community, and we are grateful for Piper Trust’s philanthropic support in the past, but we are especially grateful to have this much-needed additional funding as we combat the biggest pandemic of our time,” Terri Hoffman, president of St. Joseph’s Foundation, said in the release.
Virginia G. Piper Charitable Trust supports organizations that enrich health, well-being, and opportunity for the people of Maricopa County. Since it began awarding grants in 2000, Piper Trust has invested more than $475 million in local nonprofits and programs, according to the release.
Piper Trust grantmaking areas are healthcare and medical research, children, older adults, arts and culture, education, and religious organizations.
