Jack
Frost, Executive Director MCHF |
As I’m sure the community is aware, the
Foundation’s mission is to offer concerned
and interested persons a vehicle to make
lasting gifts to our community that will
enhance the quality of life for all. At this
writing, I have just completed my first
year as the Executive Director of this
relatively new philanthropic organization.
What a year it has been with more milestones
in twelve months than we could ever expect!
Gifted with an exceptional Board of
Trustees, we have received gifts from well
over 40 individuals and families including
100% participation from Trustees. Most
noteworthy were our first major gift annuity
of $55,000 and the almost unbelievable
bequest of $4 million from our longtime
friend and Trustee F. Eugene Dixon, Jr.
True to the end in his love for Maine Coast
Memorial Hospital and his belief that it
would in turn meet the needs of his beloved
Downeast Maine. As with all future gifts
these important endowments will be invested
wisely providing a lasting financial benefit
in support of patient care, capital
improvements, technical equipment and
cutting edge patient care.
The Foundation Board and I are encouraged by
the blessings of this past year and hope
others will see the opportunity of making an
enduring gift for the people of Downeast
Maine. I am personally grateful for the
extraordinary opportunity to be of service.
Respectfully,
Jack A. Frost
