The Riverview Health Foundation’s board of directors has given a check for $500,000 to Riverview Health. The money will go toward the purchase of a new large-bore MRI machine and hospital renovations.

It’s the tenth consecutive year the foundation has given $500,000 or more to Riverview Health. In all, the foundation has gifted more than $12 million for building projects, including the Women’s Pavilion and Emergency Center, along with equipment and patient programs.

"As the philanthropic arm of Riverview Health, we are grateful  for the opportunity to contribute money toward building healthy lives together," said Megan Wiles, Riverview Health Foundation executive director. "None of this would be possible without the support of the community and our generous donors."

The Riverview Health Foundation is celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2016.
