CRAIG IN THE COMMUNITY 2020 challenged us. People around the world felt the impact of public health crises, the economic downturn caused by COVID-19 and an unprecedented reckoning with systemic racism. Despite all of these challenges, Craig Hospital and our staff focused on our community health. We found new opportunities to help and to embrace ways we can pursue pro-social objectives. We aligned our community partnerships, through sponsorships and staff talents, with those organizations that prioritize the effort to create a just and equitable world. Examples of organizations we aligned with in 2020 include (not a complete list): • • • • • • • • • • •
Grow + Gather High Fives Foundation Chanda Center for Health Home Builders Foundation We Don’t Waste Phamaly Theatre Company National Sports Center for the Disabled Brain Injury Alliance of Colorado Integrated Family Community Services Colorado Business Committee for the Arts One Good Turn
• 2020 Craig Big Give: Through the Hospital Holiday Big Give efforts, Craig staff and community partners donated more than 4,000 kits and items to address hunger, hygiene needs, warmth and shelter to the Severe Weather Shelter Network. • Craig’s senior leadership participated in more than 15 community board of directors or advisory groups.
Craig Hospital remains committed to the impact we can have in our community. We are excited to begin planning (within CDC guidelines) to get out in the community in 2021.
