FROM THE FOUNDATION CHAIRMAN

Con Nosal, Chairman It has been my privilege and an honor to serve as Chairman of the Columbus Community Hospital Foundation for the 2015-2016 fiscal year. With the strong support from individuals and businesses in the communities we serve, the Foundation was again able to provide significant financial help to a number of important Hospital programs, and the Hospital staff has been most supportive of our efforts. A total of $542,000 was contributed by the Foundation toward many important programs and equipment for the Hospital. The major project funded by the Foundation this past year has been the addition of 3D Tomosynthesis mammogram equipment at the cost of $385,000. This new unit, which went into operation in January, has already identified a number of breast cancers that were not and could not have been detected by the machine it replaced. Other major projects such as the Alternative Gravity Treadmill for the new rehabilitation facility at the Wellness Center, a whirlpool for the Skilled Nursing Unit, the STAR Cancer Rehab program, Patient Assistance, and many others were funded by the Foundation. It is the new objective of the Foundation to provide $400,000 in the current fiscal year toward the purchase of a state-ofthe-art Wide Bore MRI machine to replace the current equipment. 

Included in the funds raised for the Foundation this past year was a significant donation from the estate of a community individual. This generous donation provided an excellent example of how individuals can be remembered in the community through their generous financial support. A community lake near the Hospital was named “Lake Esther” to honor the donor’s mother. In addition, the many hours of volunteer time required to conduct the Foundation’s major annual fundraising event – a golf tournament – resulted in another $80,000 contribution to support our programs. Our thanks to all who help make this annual event possible, including the many business sponsors and the staff of the Elks Country Club. Two important goals of the Foundation are to help fund projects as mentioned above, and to ultimately have major funds available to assist in maintaining our Hospital system’s excellence as one of the top providers of health care in Nebraska. A long-term joint investment program with the Hospital is in place to ensure that, when the time comes, the community is able to afford major updates or even a new facility to keep up with ongoing changes in health care technology. In this regard,

I am pleased to report that our major investment portfolio has been able to continue to grow throughout the turbulent markets of the past year. I will conclude by offering a major “thank you” to the countless ladies of the Columbus Community Hospital Auxiliary who have provided nearly two million dollars in support of numerous major projects over the past 44 years, and look forward to their continuing support as their time is now blended into that of the many other volunteers helping out at our Hospital. A special “thank you” to Shirley Hroza, Auxiliary President, for her leadership and tireless efforts over the past year. Finally, thanks to the past members of the CCHF Board of Directors who have concluded their terms – Dr. Ron Ernst, Pat Anderson, Lee Rupp, and Jamie Ferguson, as we welcome Marilyn Murray, Dr. Jeremy Albin, and Jay Trofolz to the Board. Sincerely,

Con Nosal Chairman of the Board Columbus Community Hospital Foundation

Columbus Community Hospital Auxiliary The Columbus Community Hospital Auxiliary was organized in 1972 after the merger of St. Mary’s Hospital and Behlen Memorial Hospital. This year, the Auxiliary’s fundraising efforts reached a new milestone. In its 43 years, the Auxiliary raised and donated a grand total of $1,852,780 to the Hospital for the purchase of medical equipment and programs. Highlighting the 30th annual event was a “Celebrating Life” butterfly release. On Saturday, July 11, community supporters gathered at Frankfort Square in downtown Columbus as 600 painted lady and monarch butterflies were released.
