Associate Assistance & Recognition Fund: Support For Our Healthcare Heroes
The St. Vincent Hospital Foundation (SVHF) is proud to introduce our Associate Assistance & Recognition Fund, a keystone initiative to support and celebrate our dedicated healthcare professionals. This fund rewards our individual hospital heroes and healthcare teams, recognizing them for their outstanding performance and patient care.
Additionally, this innovative program offers financial assistance to our associates during challenging times. They have served and sacrificed so much to care for others; let’s join together to provide for our talented CHRISTUS St. Vincent associates when they most need it.
Financial Support When It Matters Most
To foster a culture of mutual support within our hospital community, our Associate Assistance & Recognition Fund provides crucial financial aid to hospital associates facing unexpected hardships. The fund assists with a wide range of needs, including:
- Mortgage and rent
- Hospital bills
- Utility payments
- Elder and child care support
- Transportation assistance
- Food insecurity relief
If you’re a CHRISTUS St. Vincent associate and would like to request financial support from our Associate Assistance & Recognition Fund, please contact our office. Given all the dedicated caregiving our associates provide patients in northern New Mexico, SVHF is proud to provide this simple avenue for each of us to help fellow caregivers in offering love and care through financial support during difficult times in life.
But we need your help! We encourage all our associates to contribute to this fund and to draw from it in times of need. Please join us in donating to support the Associate Assistance & Recognition Fund.
