A little history…
In 1964, several friends of Frank Doran, MD, created the Doran
Foundation at Saint Mary’s hospital in his honor. A member
of the Saint Mary’s medical staff, Dr. Doran exemplified
the values of Catholic health care through his generosity,
compassion, and dedication to his patients. In 2000, after
36 years of grant making for Saint Mary’s services and
programs, trustees voted to officially merge the Doran Foundation
into the organizational structure of Saint Mary’s to
ensure its perpetuity. Today, Dr. Doran’s values and
legacy of giving live on through the Saint Mary’s Doran
Foundation and the gifts the Foundation makes in support of
Saint Mary’s. |
