Helping Community Businesses

DCH has received a tremendous outpouring of offers from the community to help with everything from donated masks to meals for healthcare workers. The DCH Health Foundation stepped in to help coordinate mask and thermometer donations. Now, as donors have reached out wishing to contribute financially, the foundation has created the COVID-19 Fund.

As an extension of that, the DCH Foundation’s COVID-19 Fund has launched a program called ‘Feeding the Frontline’ to match people who want to help the DCH Health System and local restaurants at the same time. With a donor contribution of $250 for a single meal or $1500 for a week of meals, the Foundation staff will connect with a local restaurant, purchase the food and work with DCH’s Volunteer Services Director to arrange for it to be sent to a department in one of the DCH Health System Campuses.
