Here at Sylvane, we're always looking for ways we can help others create healthier indoor environments, especially through our community service initiatives. Whether at home, at work, or anywhere between, better air is a must-have for all of us.
You may remember that last year we had the opportunity to work with several schools on their indoor air quality issues and we joined the Georgia HEART Hospital Program. Well recently, we were fortunate enough to increase our participation with the Georgia HEART Program and had the opportunity to provide financial donations to four rural Georgia hospitals.
About The Georgia HEART Hospital Program
The Georgia HEART Hospital Program seeks to enhance rural Georgians access to medical care. This program assists critical access and rural hospitals with increasing their funding and improving their ability to provide health care for those in need.
Many hospitals throughout rural Georgia have faced a financial crisis dues to demographic, economic, and health care industry changes. Rural hospitals that meet qualification criteria established by state law including being in a county with a population size of 50,000 or less are eligible to participate in the program.
Businesses and individuals can contribute to eligible hospitals, helping to provide much-needed resources to some of Georiga's most under-served communities.
