Board of Directors
Claxton-Hepburn Medical Center Foundation
The board of directors is the governing body of the Claxton-Hepburn Medical
Center Foundation and assumes full legal authority and responsibility
for the management of the foundation, its fiscal and fundraising operations,
and the investment of its assets. The board promotes the purpose of the
organization and ensures that it has sufficient resources to fulfill its
goals. It is responsible for policymaking, but delegates responsibility
for the management of the organization and staff to the executive director.
CHMC Foundation Board members ultimately ensure that the foundation meets
its mission to provide financial support to the medical center and its
not-for-profit affiliates by engaging the community, increasing philanthropic
revenue and ensuring conscientious stewardship of the funds and resources
placed in our care.
