Shoshone Medical Center

                                          A Nonprofit Corporation

     The Shoshone Medical Center Foundation was organized in 1990 according to the Section 501(c) (3) section of the Internal Revenue Code as a non-profit corporation. Its purpose is to benefit Shoshone Medical Center by coordinating all fund development programs, receiving Estate bequests, donations, gifts, and administering and disbursing funds received. 

     Scholarships are offered to Silver Valley students who are continuing their education in a health related field.  An employee scholarship program is offered to employees who are pursuing further education in health care.   

     The annual Golf Classic held in September at Shoshone Golf Club has become a very popular event for golfers as well as non-golfers.   “Summer Wine” is a wine tasting and art auction event held the last Thursday of July in the beautiful courtyard at the Silver Mountain Resort gondola base  in Kellogg. It is a special invitation affair with opportunities to own fine art, taste excellent wines, listen to a little jazz and enjoy a beautiful North Idaho summer evening.   A newsletter is mailed periodically to keep friends up-to-date on the latest Foundation and hospital news.
