The Community Memorial Hospital Foundation was established in 2001 to consolidate all fundraising efforts for the hospital. The $1.1 million Golden Anniversary Campaign was launched simultaneously. The goal of the first phase was the creation of an expanded ambulatory surgery unit. The second phase of the effort was support for the construction of the Hamilton Family Health Center and the addition of a 16 slice CT scanner.

The Anniversary Campaign was successfully completed on December 31, 2007. The Ambulatory Surgery Center occupies a bright, cheerful and private wing adjacent to the operating suites and contains 18 beds. The Hamilton Family Health Center, near the hospital administration building, is open with two physicians and a family nurse practitioner and the CT scan is providing detailed images that provide invaluable diagnostic information.

The Foundation’s fundraising efforts are ongoing with a focus on equipment needs.

The community has a history of generously supporting the hospital. Community Memorial was able to raise $750,000 in the mid-eighties, $1.2 million in the early nineties, a additional $750,000 late in the decade, and is now $1.1 million to begin the Millennium. Considerable funds have been raised through the Hospital Auxiliary as well.
