Greetings from Ronan, Montana

Friends come in many forms. Your St. Luke Hospital friends are here to take care of you when you're not feeling well. They'll support you and be there when you need medical treatment, a shoulder to lean on, or a great big hug. We're your community hospital and we take an interest in understanding what you're all about. Our friendship with you is about trust and quality care. Friends always want what's best for friends. and we're always here for you!

"After the radiology department at St. Luke performed a CT scan of my heart and found out that I had an artery 90% blocked, I learned that the folks at St. Luke are some of my best friends. They saved my life!"      - Wayne Fuchs

It's because of our long-term friendship and knowing your needs that a hospital expansion project has evolved. The solutions to your healthcare needs are our number one priority. We've been listening! We know it's been difficult for you to immediately see your doctor. And that's why the hospital expansion project will include a new "convenient care clinic." What does this mean for you? It means that if you can't get in to see your regular doctor you can walk into the clinic without an appointment to see a provider. St. Luke is committed to providing the solutions to your needs. This is only one of the many benefits that the St. Luke Hospital expansion project has for you. As a friend of St. Luke, we're asking for your help. You see, the St. Luke Foundation has a goal to raise 1.5 million dollars for this project. Currently, our friends have gifted and/or pledged $350,750. Please consider helping us with a "stretch" gift. You may wonder what's a "stretch" gift. It's a donation larger than you would normally make and it's one that you may consider pledging over a three-year period. Please make your gift or pledge today.

If you have any questions about this project, or would like further information, please contact the St. Luke Foundation. We have a complete packet of information about the project including gift-naming opportunities. Andy, Mark and Karen, will be delighted to visit with you about the project and how you might be able to help. Thank you for your consideration.

Sincere regards from your friends always,
