St. John Associate Hardship Program
Posted on March 25, 2025.
The Ascension St. John Foundation has helped provide support to our associates in times of hardship through its Associate Hardship Program. Through its generous donors, the foundation has been able to provide more than $70,000 annually in emergency assistance to associates experiencing various types of financial need.
The fund was established in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic to support employees facing unexpected or difficult personal circumstances. It provides timely assistance to individuals who encounter challenges such as natural disasters, housing crises or other unforeseen events that disrupt their lives or financial stability.
Every dollar donated to this fund benefits our local associates. A committee of local leaders at Ascension St. John Medical Center meets monthly to personally review each funding request from associates throughout Tulsa, Bartlesville, Broken Arrow, Sapulpa, Nowata, Owasso, Jenks and all AMG clinic sites.
