Haywood Park Community Hospital raises $5100 in campaign

New Leadership at Haywood Park Community Hospital has raised $5,100 for United Way. The hospital, in a show of community support returned to running an annual campaign to support the 15 United Way partner agencies in Haywood County.

“How can we ask for support from our community if we don’t support the community ourselves?” said John Kight. This philosophy was echoed in the new leadership directive, and was instituted by the campaign coordinators, John Kight and Phyllis Cozart.

“It is exactly this attitude that strengthens the bonds in our community,” said Diana Tate, county campaign chair. “It is about looking out for each other and sometimes paying it forward. I am proud of Haywood Park Community Hospital and the amazing campaign they ran this year.”
