Savannah Philharmonic Donates $4,500 to the Anderson Cancer Institute
The Savannah Philharmonic presented a donation of $4,500 to Memorial Health Foundation in honor of the Curtis and Elizabeth Anderson Cancer Institute on Wednesday, June 16. The check presentation ceremony was held at William and Iffath Hoskins Center for Biomedical Research.
Memorial Health representatives Phillip Schaengold, President and CEO of Memorial University Medical Center, Steven Brower, M.D., FACS, Director of the Anderson Cancer Institute, and Curtis and Elizabeth Anderson accepted the donation from Savannah Philharmonic representatives Dick Platt, Chairman and Peter Shannon, Artistic Director and Conductor.
“Music can have a profound effect on our health and wellbeing. Beyond the healing force of a Beethoven symphony, it is appropriate for us to make this donation to the Anderson Cancer Institute in a way that shows our concert goers that we are committed to making Savannah a better place to live,” said Shannon.
The donation was raised from last season’s Beethoven 9th concert at the Lucas Theatre for the Arts. The Savannah Philharmonic donated half of the proceeds from the premium ticket sales to the Anderson Cancer Institute as a way to give back to the community of Savannah. This is the third time the Philharmonic has made a donation to a worthy cause in Savannah from ticket sales. Other beneficiaries have been The 200 Club, The Alzheimer's Association, AWOL, Big Brother Big Sister and Social Apostolate.
Memorial University Medical Center (MUMC) is a two-state healthcare organization serving a 35-county area in southeast Georgia and southern South Carolina. The system includes its flagship hospital, a 530-bed academic medical center; Memorial primary and specialty care physician networks; a major medical education program; business and industry services; and NurseOne, a 24-hour call center.
