2009 Circle of Friends

This prominent and permanent display, located in the main lobby of the Medical Center, honors individuals and organizations whose philanthropic support over the years has totaled $10,000 or more. It recognizes the generosity of individuals, community businesses, corporations, community service organizations and many of the boroughs and townships served by CentraState.
The Circle of Friends Society is a recognition and tribute to the importance of philanthropy and community involvement in our quest for continuous improvement of patient care. It is an ever-changing, living tribute as each year, new names are added and current Society members move up in category as their generosity grows.

The name of each Society member, currently 247, is inscribed in glass, honoring them for their lifetime support of CentraState. Their collective donations exceed $16.5 million. A number of the donations shown came through bequests. These generous donors provided and, in most cases, continue to provide significant support for our mission of providing the highest quality and compassionate healthcare to the communities we serve.
