the second century campaign
caring for your future

Meeting needs and exceeding expectations…it sums up the very nature of Underwood-Memorial’s vision and mission to deliver high-quality, comprehensive health care to the community it serves.We know that you look to us to care for your future. Therefore, we are investing $46 million over the next three years to expand and enhance Underwood-Memorial’s capacity to provide the high level of services to meet the needs of a growing community.

Through the Second Century Campaign, we are seeking community collaboration in raising a minimum of $3 million to be used toward the cost of renovating and expanding the Emergency Department. The remainder of necessary funding will come from a combination of long term debt and hospital equity.

Our Emergency Department is a lifeline to thousands of residents in Gloucester County and nearby communities. It is one of the busiest in the Delaware Valley and New Jersey — over 52,000 patient visits in 2004 alone. During the next decade it is projected that this number will rise over 17%!

The Second Century Campaign seeks the largest goal UMH has ever sought from such a broad scope community effort. We are pleased that the immediate hospital family — auxilians, physicians, trustees and board members, employees, and volunteers — already have made their commitment to this important effort. We ask for the support of the community and hope that you will consider joining us.

Your generous support of the Second Century Campaign is vitally important and it will certainly help us in caring for your future.
