Skiff Medical Center realizes that our community is filled with women who want to help make a difference, but whose family and work obligations have their calendars full to bursting. That’s why we offer Women Investing in Skiff Health (W.I.S.H.).

Getting involved
What does it take to be a member of W.I.S.H.? Surprisingly little. Just your financial assistance of $250, your ideas and – only four times annually – your time.
To recognize and reward you for generosity, you will be our guest at quarterly social gathering sessions where physicians and other health-care professionals will address current issues in medicine and community health. You will have a voice in directing the use of the funds W.I.S.H. raises. To join W.I.S.H., contact Skiff Foundation Director Bruce Hoffmeier at (641) 791-4887 or bhoffmeier@skiffmed.com. You can also print out a sign-up form, located on the back of our brochure.
Your time, your funds, your community – all of them are precious. We want to work with you to make the most of them.
The Skiff Foundation has helped secure a quality health-care future for our communities. Your gifts allow everyone to enjoy a small-town lifestyle while receiving a full range of quality health-care services close to home.
