The Scotland Health Care System Compassionate Care Fund, also known as Scotland Memorial Hospital’s Indigent Patient Fund, assists in the purchase of medical supplies, high-end medications, post surgical medicines, etc. for patients who cannot afford to purchase these products once they leave the hospital.

The Patient & Family Travel Fund Our is a new program offered through Scotland Memorial Foundation to financially help patients meet their daily appointments or families who cannot cannot afford the costs of travel when a loved one is transferred to another medical facility.

Diabetes Education Fund - as diabetes is affecting America more each year, the Diabetes Education Fund will help provide more educational programs for the community.

The FUNd Run-4-Life is an exciting event for all community members, not just runners and walkers. First-time runners, seasoned athletes, children, or those who just want to walk for their health can enjoy the event. A pasta party is scheduled for the evening before the event.
