Annual Hospital Auxiliary Fundraiser

Each year, the Sequoyah Memorial Hospital Auxiliary group hosts an annual event to raise funds for needed medical equipment.  The event is a fun time during which community leaders come together to participate in a delectable buffet and auction.  Items up for auction every year are donated by local Sequoyah County businesses in support of Sequoyah Memorial Hospital.  In 2007, a check for $15,000 was awarded to Sequoyah Memorial to purchase Cardiac Impedance Equipment.  The equipment’s functions include measuring cardiac output, systemic vascular resistance, contractility, and fluid status.  The Auxiliary Fundraiser is very important to the hospital’s efforts to provide state-of-the-art equipment for our patients’ needs.  

“The fundraiser is important because our hospital is important to our community.  I’m involved because our family as a whole knows that the hospital is an important part of our community, and updating equipment as we can is also important.  The community has been very supportive in helping us do that.”
