This weekend, our Beacon of Hope will shine green in recognition of Adrenal Cancer Awareness Month.

We light the beacon for our patients, for the loved ones who care for them, and for our clinical and research teams who bring dedication and compassion to this work every day. Each lighting reflects the care, collaboration, and commitment behind every diagnosis and every step forward.

Research is central to what we do. Through clinical trials and scientific discovery, we are working to better understand adrenal cancer and expand treatment options for those we serve.

We are deeply grateful to our donors, philanthropic partners, and federal funding agencies. Your support makes this progress possible and helps bring new understanding and possibilities within reach for our patients and their families.

Our friends at the Utah Mammoth recently dropped off an autographed Hockey Fights Cancer jersey—one more meaningful way they’ve shown up for us throughout the season.

We’re truly grateful for their continued support of our patients, their loved ones, our staff, and for the care they show for the work happening here every day.

Thank you for standing with our community. We’ll be watching and cheering you on in the playoffs!

During National Volunteer Week, we want to send a special thank you to our animal therapy teams who share their dogs and miniature horses with our community.

When the dogs make their rounds, you can feel the shift. People stop, smile, and reach out for a familiar kind of comfort. And when the miniature horses visit outside, they bring just as much joy—drawing people in, sparking conversation, and creating moments that stay with you long after.

To our pet therapy volunteers, we are so grateful that you bring these meaningful connections to patients, families, and staff. You make a real difference—one paw or hoof at a time—and leave a lasting impression in the very best way.

In a new Letter of Hope, GI surgical oncologist Dr. Clark Gamblin shares what he sees every day in the operating room: real progress that’s changing what’s possible for patients with liver and other complex cancers.

From safer, more precise surgeries to new advances in chemotherapy and targeted treatments, decades of research are helping more people receive effective care than ever before.

For Dr. Gamblin, it all comes back to the people and families who place their trust in us—and the responsibility to keep improving.

Happy Administrative Professionals Day to the people who keep everything running smoothly—from the first hello at the front desk to the many moving parts behind clinical trials and research.

You’re often the steady, familiar presence that patients and teams rely on, offering care and attention in moments that matter most—many of which happen quietly, out of view.

What you do goes far beyond administration. You help create access, ease uncertainty, and support patients and their loved ones from the very beginning.

We’re truly grateful for the care and humanity you bring to your work every day.

This National Volunteer Week, we’re grateful for the music volunteers who fill our lobbies with live performances. Their time and talent create moments of calm, reflection, and connection for patients, families, and staff.

People pause. Some stay for a song, some just for a moment—but it changes the feel of the whole space. It offers a chance to breathe and a quiet connection in the middle of a busy day.

To our music volunteers, thank you for sharing your time and your talent with everyone who walks through our doors. You truly strike a chord with all of us.

It’s National Laundry & Linen Week, and we’re taking a moment to recognize this incredible team.

Each month, they supply more than 100,000 pounds of linen—over 1.2 million pounds a year—ensuring patients and staff have what they need, from bedding and gowns to towels, blankets, and scrubs. They deliver to 40 locations across the hospital every day.

Their work touches every corner of the hospital, creating comfort and care in ways that matter more than most people ever see. We’re so thankful for all they do.

Happy Medical Laboratory Professionals Week!

From processing samples to supporting precise cancer diagnoses, our laboratory professionals play an essential role in patient care. Much of their work happens behind the scenes, but its impact is felt in every step of treatment and decision-making.

We truly appreciate their expertise, their attention to detail, and the quiet care they bring to their work each day.

When Fred was first diagnosed with leukemia, he was told he only had a few months to live. More than a decade later, he can still be found in the bone marrow transplant unit—this time to sit with other patients and share what he’s learned.

During his earliest days of treatment, he met Cassidy, a new nurse who became a steady presence in his care. Over time, that connection grew into a lasting friendship, one that still brings him back to support patients and even speak with new nurses about the patient experience.

After multiple rounds of chemotherapy and two stem cell transplants, Fred now meets with patients facing some of the hardest moments of treatment—listening, sharing honestly, and staying as long as they need.

Read Fred’s story through the link below.

It’s National Volunteer Week, and we’re celebrating those who give their time in the most meaningful ways.

Whether you’re sharing music in the halls, stopping by with a furry (or even hoofed) friend, or simply offering a kind presence, you help create moments that matter—for our patients, families, and care teams alike.

To each of you: thank you for the time, care, and heart you share with our patients and teams every day.

This weekend, the Beacon of Hope shines periwinkle in recognition of Esophageal Cancer Awareness Month, reflecting remembrance, commitment, and hope..

We light it in honor of our patients and their loved ones, and in recognition of our clinical teams and researchers whose care and dedication make a difference every day. Through ongoing research, we are advancing earlier diagnosis, more effective treatments, and stronger support for survivorship.

It also shines in gratitude for our donors, philanthropic partners, and federal funding agencies whose generosity helps make this progress possible.

We recently gathered with our Clinical Trials Office to celebrate and recognize the care, dedication, and collaboration behind an incredible milestone.

Last year, 764 patients enrolled in clinical trials—each one contributing to progress in cancer research and care. This achievement reflects the collective effort and commitment of every team member.

From exploring new treatment options to expanding access for rural communities, this work is shaping how cancer is understood, detected, and treated across the Mountain West and beyond.

We’re so thankful for our Clinical Trials team and the patients who make this progress possible.
