This holiday season, our West Jeff family came together in a big way to support our community.🎁⭐

For the 7th year, our hospital and clinics “adopted” local elementary school children, making sure each of the 45 children we sponsored received gifts chosen with care and love. Seeing the joy on their faces as they opened their presents was the highlight of our season.

We also partnered with Gladewaves for the fourth year for a holiday food drive, collecting over 100 bags of groceries for families right here in our community. Thanks to the generosity of our incredible team, many households will have a little extra comfort this season.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to serve, support, and uplift our neighbors. Giving back is at the heart of who we are at West Jeff, and we’re proud to continue traditions that strengthen our community.🏥💙

We had a beary good time at our Auxiliary’s Annual Holiday Luncheon!🧸🎄

Scholarship recipients were honored, and a generous $20,000 check was presented to hospital leadership to support improvement projects and enhance patient satisfaction.
