Guests gathered for a lively night filled with great food, meaningful conversation, and a silent auction. The event celebrated the hospital’s continued growth while shining a light on the community support that makes progress possible.
A standout moment of the evening was a powerful testimonial video focused on the hospital’s award-winning Stroke Program. Through real patient experiences, attendees saw how fast, evidence-based stroke care saves lives and improves outcomes, especially in a rural setting. Several stroke patients and their families were present, adding a deeply personal and emotional layer to the program’s impact.
The Gala also introduced the Power of Caring Award, created to recognize individuals who lead with compassion and service. The inaugural award was presented to Sherry Beavers, Director of Open Arms Clinic, honoring her lifelong dedication to patients and the community she serves.
The Foundation extends sincere thanks to everyone who attended, sponsored, and supported the event. The evening served as a clear reminder that when a community comes together, meaningful care and lasting impact follow.
Those who were unable to attend can still support the Foundation through the Georgia Heart Tax Credit and ongoing sponsorships.
