LIONS CLUBS INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION FUNDS HANCOCK MEDICAL IMAGING ROOM
DIAMONDHEAD – Hancock Medical was the recipient of two generous donations from the The Lions Clubs International Foundation totaling $107,507 for its imaging suite at the Hancock Medical Multi-Specialty Clinic, located in Diamondhead, MS.
Howard A. Jenkins, International Director of The International Association of Lions Clubs, and Dolores M. Tanner, Vice District Governor for District 30-N and a member of the Diamondhead Lions Club, presented the checks to Hancock Medical Administrator Hal W. Leftwich at the hospital’s annual health fair in Diamondhead on Thursday.
Leftwich and Hancock Medical knew about the first check for $42,782, but a second check for $64,725 was a surprise.
“We are incredibly grateful for the support from the Lions Clubs International Foundation,” said Leftwich. “Our dedicated staff has been working hard to bring comprehensive health care services to all of Hancock County. These donations today by the Lions Clubs International Foundation help us bring imaging services to this growing area of our county and many people will benefit as a result of this generous gift.”
Local Lions Club member Tanner said the hospital is well-deserving of the funds.
“Hancock Medical has been a beacon of hope for people in need,” said Tanner. “The staff continues to be there for people, as they were immediately after Hurricane Katrina. Hancock Medical employees who weathered the storm are heroes and the Lions are glad to support the health care services they provide in Hancock County.”
