San Andreas, CA....Mark Twain St. Joseph’s Hospital, through its affiliation with Catholic Healthcare West, has announced the extension of the deadline for accepting Letters of Intent for the 2008 Community Grants Program. The deadline for submission of Letters of Intent is September 19, 2008. The objective of CHW’s Community Grants Program is to award grants to ....

The funds are to be used to provide services to underserved populations (economically poor; women and children; mentally or physically disabled; or other disenfranchised populations).

“We are very pleased to once again offer the Community Grant Program” said hospital president Feliciano Jiron. “Partnerships with organizations who share similar mission and values are important to the health status of our community. We look forward each year to this collaborative project”.

Applicants must be a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization or have a fiscal agent that is a 501 (c)(3) organization and capable of administering the project’s funds. Last year’s recipient was the Take It To Heart Foundation who is using the funds this year to support their “Family Fit” project to fight childhood obesity.

Mark Twain St. Joseph’s Hospital is a not-for-profit, 48-bed general acute care hospital serving all of Calaveras County. Established in 1951 as Mark Twain District Hospital and centrally located in San Andreas, the hospital is partnered with Catholic Healthcare West to further strengthen this rural hospital to meet future community needs.
