Cancer and Community Charities, known as the 3Cs, is the longest-standing consecutive donor in the Kootenai Health Foundation’s 34-year history.
“The Kootenai Health Foundation is honored to celebrate 32 years of philanthropic partnership with Cancer and Community Charities,” said a news release.
The total given to date by the local nonprofit organization to Kootenai Health Foundation has reached nearly $313,000.
The first gift from the 3Cs was given in 1986 to support the campaign to build the Kootenai Cancer Center, which opened in 1987. Subsequent annual gifts have supported the Walden House and the Foundation’s Festival of Trees fundraiser.
Kootenai Health representatives met with the nonprofit’s current president and past presidents to thank them for the 3Cs’ longstanding generosity.
