Ascension Borgess Foundation
Associates experiencing financial crisis during pandemic received assistance because of your generosity
Seventeen Borgess associates were given financial help through the Associate Hardship Fund during their time of need. This fund is supported entirely through your donations. Associates in southwest Michigan can apply for assistance through the “My Ascension” portal. In their time of need, an associate can receive financial help that is confidential, respectful and does not foster dependency.
Who received help (by job title): RNs, Medical Assistants, Patient Care Techs, Secretaries, Patient Access Representatives, Coordinators, LPNs, Patient Transporters, Managers, Therapists, Security Officers, etc.
This is an expression of gratitude from an associate: “I want to thank all of the donors who helped my family with groceries during this challenging time. With my wife not having a job from COVID-19, your generosity and kindness helped us out with much-needed diapers and food. Thank you for showing kindness and love.”
