It’s time to dust off your Stetsons and polish up your best high heel boots — spurs optional — and get in two-step for Black Tie, Boots and Bling, the annual GVMH Foundation Gala. It’s a night to pull out your fanciest frocks and diamond tie studs, eat and drink well, and kick up your heels for a community cause.
Proceeds from Black Tie, Boots and Bling help fund a wide range of Foundation activities, from compassionate temporary care for neighbors to helping pay for top-notch medical facilities and equipment here at home.
From where we sit, it looks like a great opportunity for you to have fun and do good at the same time.

Healthcare is an ongoing challenge in many rural parts of the country, which is why the mission of the GVMH Foundation has always been to ensure that the quality of medical care you need — the Golden Standard of Care — is always available right here.
Having treatments, equipment and medical experts comparable to urban medical centers means that you can get the care you need closer to home. That is why gifts to our local Foundation help make available well-qualified personnel and advanced technologies such as our new Radiation Oncology Center as well as our many other programs.
Foundation funds are used for programs ranging from the Care Closet to help patients coping with cancer to special devices to help parents deal with the loss of a stillborn child. The Foundation also supports financial aid to help uninsured patients with needed equipment and supplies, and in some cases even provides financial help with transportation to appointments or treatments.
Schools and community groups with health-related initiatives also turn to the GVMH Foundation for financial assistance.
Profits from our Gala in the spring and Golden Golf Classic tournament in the summer helps support our charitable programs, as do cash and property donations, investment savings, annuities and grants. We are always happy to arrange a meeting to discuss your philanthropic options. As a 501(c)3, donations to the GVMH Foundation are tax-deductible.
Without GVMH, our families, friends and neighbors are often more than an hour away from top-quality medical care. Having advanced treatment capabilities for heart disease and cancer, birth and maternity care — these are services many rural areas only dream of but that we have, thanks to your generous contributions.
It is only with your help that we can continue to say, we are Here When You Need Us.
