Monsanto Fund Supports GRMC Campaign

Grinnell Regional Medical Center has received a grant of $20,000 from the Monsanto Fund for the medical center’s Moving at the Speed of Life comprehensive campaign, in support of the planned renovation of GRMC emergency and urgent care services.
“We are grateful for the support of the Monsanto Fund over the years,” says Denise Lamphier, director of communications and development for GRMC. “Our local Monsanto site operation led by Al Henderson and the Monsanto Fund have been great supporters of GRMC.”
GRMC’s latest comprehensive campaign, called Moving at the Speed of Life is set to raise $7.5 million by the year 2017, when the medical center will celebrate its 50th anniversary of service.
The campaign focuses on enhancing services, facilities, and technology at GRMC to meet the healthcare needs of the community today and in the future while also supporting annual needs of the medical center.
Overall, the campaign continues to raise funds for these projects to:
§  Modernize the emergency department and create an urgent care clinic.
§  Enhance chemotherapy and infusion services.
§  Purchase state-of-the-art robotic surgery equipment and a new CT scanner.
§  Renovate Postels Community Health Park to accommodate GRMC’s growing wellness program.
§  Establish an endowment for Grinnell Regional Mental Health Center.
