Real Men Wear Pink Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Real Men Wear Pink

As HSHS St. Anthony's celebrates 150 years of service to our community, we continue to remind everyone that mammograms play a critical role in the early detection of breast cancer. Real Men Wear Pink serves to inspire everyone to encourage the women in their lives to put themselves first and schedule their mammogram. Recognized annually in October.

Why give to HSHS St. Anthony's Foundation?

As a non-profit hospital, we rely on generous contributions from people just like you to help us to achieve our mission. Whether it entails welcoming our youngest patients as they open their eyes to a new world, getting a new lease on life with a joint replacement or providing groundbreaking cancer treatment close to home, you can be assured that donations to the HSHS St. Anthony's Foundation are making a difference.

Many positive investments in equipment and our facility are made possible through the generous donations of both the public and our own colleagues. 

Any way it is measured – by participation, annual giving or as a planned gift for the future – giving to HSHS St. Anthony's matters. It matters to our patients, who benefit from expanded opportunities for health care excellence. It inspires our colleagues who utilize philanthropy to provide compassionate patient services. It engages the entire HSHS St. Anthony's community, who rely on a healthy philanthropic program to sustain and build the mission of the hospital.

Established funds and ways to give to the Foundation

Contributions to "Commitment to Progress" are used to assist St. Anthony's in improving facilities or purchasing state-of-the-art technology to provide the best possible care for our patients.
Financial Assistance is a part of St. Anthony's mission to provide health care to all people, regardless of ability to pay. Financial Assistance is not bad debt; it is truly the cost of providing health care to those who have the obligation and willingness to pay, but do not have the ability to pay.
 

Giving to St. Anthony's Foundation is a meaningful way to recognize someone who matters to you - whether that's a caregiver who made a difference in your care, a loved one you want to celebrate or someone whose memory you want to honor.
