Community service: starting a not-for-profit foundation.
The values statement of Medford Clinic is "dedication to excellence in health care, serving our communities with integrity, respect and compassion." Contributing directly to the community is a natural extension of our basic values as health care providers and professionals. Medford Clinic Foundation was created in 1996 to communicate our values and to express our gratitude by contributing to our community directly and personally. Our foundation was formed to generate funds to invest in the future of our community. We chose youth as the theme for our contributions. Generally, we make small grants to individual children rather then supporting on-going programs or non-profit agencies. We target the special one-time needs of unique children in our community.
