The Barrett Hospital Foundation is seeking a new endowment to fund ongoing hospital equipment and technology upgrades.
The foundation, the fundraising arm of Barrett Hospital, also appointed new officers for this year’s board term.
The hospital equipment and technology endowment is the 11-member board’s newest initiative, Foundation Executive Director Brooke Erb said. The board has been discussing an endowment for years, because “It’s a big undertaking to raise that kind of money in a small town like this,” she said.
