Mercy Iowa City CEO Ronald R. Reed said the Healthy Kids Community Care program benefits the entire community. "Healthy children come to school ready to learn and miss fewer school days. This not only benefits children, but also their parents and the parents’ employers."

Iowa City Hospice Executive Director Maggie Elliott says, "The Iowa City Hospice endowment fund ensures compassionate hospice care and grief support services will be available to the greater Iowa City community and beyond for generations to come."

Richard Hurtig says, "Contributing to the Iowa City Hospice endowment was a way of insuring the community's future needs would continue to be met. We’re so fortunate our community has forward-thinking citizens whose generosity helped create the Community Foundation of Johnson County. The Foundation is a marvelous, selfless service that is helping our community guarantee our future will be bright.”

Shelter House Board President Dottie Persson said, “The Shelter House Board of Directors is grateful for the gift allowing the Shelter House to create an endowment fund within the Community Foundation of Johnson County.
