Foundation Board approves 2019-2023 Strategic Plan

September 1, 2019

At the Chinook Regional Hospital Foundation we are proud of the impact that donors have facilitated at the Chinook Regional Hospital. From our very beginning in 1992, our organization has been feverishly supported by generous donors who strive to ensure that the best possible care is always available, and has been led by dedicated, strong and community minded volunteers and staff.

Our new strategic plan defines the next great era for the Chinook Regional Hospital Foundation. It is a culmination of a year’s worth of hard work. We analyzed our past successes and failures, took a hard look at our environment and what was trending around us and wrapped our minds around supporting our ever changing population – a population we are dedicated to serving for years to come. Working together we have crafted a thoughtful and inspiring blueprint for our future.

Through this process we have updated our Mission and Vision, identified and refined our Core Values and dedicated ourselves to aspiring to create a culture that is rooted in care and compassion.

Our goals are clear and our teams aligned and we believe that our future has never looked brighter. Thank you for your support, dedication and optimism.
