of McKenzie Health
The Benefit Fund of McKenzie Health is committed to enhancing McKenzie Health’s services and care for patients and customers through fundraising and advocacy.
LEAVE YOUR LEGACY
For 49 years, McKenzie Health has been showing our neighbors and friends that we specialize in you — medical care is right here in western North Dakota, often in the town you grew up in and it is close to home.
Your donation ensures that today’s patients and customers of the Clinic, McKenzie Hospital, Good Shepherd Home, Horizon Assisted Living, and Connie Wold Wellness Center will continue to have excellent care, close to home for decades to come!
It is because of you that we have constructed new buildings, replaced needed equipment, renovated spaces, and purchased new state-of-the-art equipment typically found far from home. It is an investment in the future of each community member who come to us for family medicine, assisted living, an emergency, surgery, or other medical service.
There are many ways to help accomplish our mission and there are plenty of ways to get involved and leave a legacy now and for generations to come.
