The Redwood Area Hospital Foundation is pleased to announce the addition of two new members to their Board of Directors: Bob Plaetz and Blair Anderson. They will be replacing retiring members Jan Madsen and Phil Martin.

Bob Plaetz is a lifetime resident of Lucan and is vice-president of Lucan State Bank. Blair Anderson is a farmer and pork producer near Fairfax, which he has done for the last 28 years. They have both agreed to sit on the board for at least the next three years. These positions are voluntary and no compensation is given to foundation board members. Their role as a board member is to guide the foundation with budget planning and developing fundraisers for the foundation.

The Redwood Area Hospital Foundation is the philanthropic arm of the Redwood Area Hospital that supports the endeavor to live out their mission of “Caring People . . . Caring for People”. The mission of the foundation is to provide opportunity for charitable giving that will increase awareness of the Redwood Area Hospital and community health needs. This funding will be used to enhance patient care by supporting professional health care education, community health and hospital services.
