We Love Our Volunteers!
Throughout the years the Ascension St. John Auxiliary presents the Foundation with a check from donations they have collected from proceeds from gift shop sales and various fundraisers they have put on throughout the year. Recently, Ascension St. John Auxiliary donated $1,739,025 towards a $2 Million dollar pledge made in 2015 benefitting Telemedicine at The Heyman Stroke Center. The Heyman Stroke Center fund goes to help our 24-7 emergency stroke care center by helping to provide experienced medical team members, advanced technology, and acute intervention therapy education needed to help decrease serious brain injury.
