Today is Giving Tuesday! Your support is needed today more than ever to reach the $50,000 goal for patients in crisis. The goal is higher than ever this year because St. Margaret patients are facing an unprecedented crisis. Federal cuts have left patients with reduced or removed SNAP benefits, without essential transportation, with increased medication costs, and more.

🧡 Season of Gratitude: throughout the month of November, we are highlighting our gratitude for some of the folks in our lives at St. Margaret Foundation.

Today, we are grateful for Michelle Sallinger-Moorehead. Michelle in an Administrative Supervisor in St. Margaret Hospital's Radiology Department, but she is also a vital member of the Employee Experience Council. If you are an employee here at St. Margaret, you've probably gotten an email from her about the many food trucks that she and everyone on the Employee Experience Council work hard to organize. Michelle and the EEC also pack the non-perishable food bags for employees in need, book fun events like kangaroo and mini-horse visits, organize the candy carts, and more. Thank you for making St. Margaret such a great place to work, Michelle!

Today, we are grateful for Patty Katz, President of the Women's Auxiliary of St. Margaret Hospital. Patty is a great partner to St. Margaret Foundation. She and her fellow Auxilians work hard to organize fundraisers for the St. Margaret Chapel, the three St. Margaret Family Health Centers, warm clothing for children, and more. Patty worked at St. Margaret Hospital years ago and remains an asset to us. Thank you, Patty!

Today we are grateful for Judy Granato, Jaqi Conomikes, and their team of volunteers. Judy is a member of the Board of Directors of St. Margaret Foundation who has taken on the task of maintaining the many gardens that receive grants from St. Margaret Foundation, along with Jaqi and other volunteers. It takes year-round expertise to ensure our gardens look beautiful and welcoming for our patients who need a place to find peace during stressful situations. This team looks after the Garden of Hope in the Van Horn Pavilion, the Butterfly Garden in the courtyard, the garden on the rehab floor, and the garden at the New Kensington Family Health Center. Thank you, Judy, Jaqi, and more!

Today we are grateful for JD Lane. JD is St. Margaret Hospital's Mail Clerk. He is absolutely essential to the daily operations of St. Margaret Foundation and so many others. He does more than deliver our mail to and from the office - JD goes above and beyond to help us improve our processes and be more efficient. He brings us extra supplies when we need it, he helps us navigate the hospital by sharing his expertise, and he offers us a smiling face when we need it. Thank you, JD, for all you do!

Remembering our dear Rod Rutkowski who when Santa couldn’t show up at the hospital for the children carolers one year, put on the suit and assumed the role, talking with each child one at a time. Rod was the director of Care Management and was as highly revered of a leader as anyone ever could be. Rod is pictured here 10 years ago today with Foundation President Mary Lee Gannon in front of the tree where the children hung their handmade ornaments. Thinking of you today, Rod.

💌 Save the Date! Giving Tuesday is December 2, 2025. Giving Tuesday is a global movement where people come together with generosity to strengthen communities and change the world.

An anonymous donor is offering to match donations on Giving Tuesday up to $50,000. When you give this year, your gift will be doubled for patients facing unprecedented hardship. St. Margaret Foundation is a public charity, independent of UPMC. We don't pay hospital bills - every dollar supports hope, healing, and independence for individuals in need.
