Compassion Campaign Aids UnityPoint Health - Trinity and Genesis Team Members

DAVENPORT, Iowa – April 10, 2020 – These are unprecedented and challenging times for health care workers and the community due to COVID-19. During times of crisis, people often look for ways to help. Our local hospitals and clinics have been blessed to receive food donations from many individuals, groups and companies and we are grateful. However, we are experiencing some disruptions in our routine as we focus on providing excellent care to our patients.

To protect you, our physicians and medical providers, nurses, team members, patients and visitors, we have placed tight restrictions on visitors. This limits our ability to accept generous donations of food and beverages. As much as these food donations are appreciated, we are limited in what we can accept at our facilities.

Our goal is to help you act on your good intentions. You can still help. Please consider:

  • A monetary donation to our Genesis Foundation Healthcare Workforce Support Fund or Trinity Foundation Health Care Crisis Fund which allow us to take care of our frontline workers in several ways.
  • A gift card in lieu of actual food or beverages.
  • Discounted or free food or beverages at area businesses for health care employees showing their Genesis or Trinity badge.
  • Genesis and Trinity are organizing and delivering donated items to recognize the compassion and skilled care being provided by our staffs. Your donations can help this outreach to staff.

Our team members are grateful for your support and will be notified of your generosity.

Thanks for being part of this effort.

Call the Trinity Health Foundation at (309) 779-7610 or the Genesis Foundation at (563) 421-6865 to ask how you can recognize our local healthcare heroes, or visit foundation@unitypoint.org or https://www.genesishealth.com/giving/.
