DON AND BETTY ANDERSON UNDERWRITE NEW CLINICAL LABORATORY

A Charlotte family with a passionate interest in philanthropy, Don and Betty Anderson continue to help advance innovative research and education programs at Atrium Health, including recent support for the Carolinas College of Health Sciences Capital Fund. Laboratory science and medical education hold a special place in Betty's life, as the former Director of the Carolinas College of Health Sciences' Clinical Laboratory Science program for more than 30 years. An endowed nursing scholarship was established in her name to celebrate her retirement and honor her career. Their most recent gift will help underwrite one of three new clinical laboratory sciences labs planned for the Carolinas College of Health Sciences and will be named in Betty's honor. These labs allow clinical laboratory scientists to perform complex laboratory tests and procedures, and to provide essential opportunities for students to practice and develop skills necessary to function as laboratory professionals.

In addition to their support of medical education and laboratory science at the Carolinas College of Health Sciences, the Andersons have for many years made vital contributions to enhance bladder cancer research programs at Levine Cancer Institute through the Don and Betty Anderson Fund for Bladder Cancer Research established in 2013 at Atrium Health Foundation.
