Growing Generosity Longtime donors show how they reap more than they sow W ithout the generosity of those who give to the Gwinnett Medical Center Foundation, GMC’s transformation of healthcare would not be possible. Whether it is a one-time donation or continuous giving, generosity is contagious, and those who give are bettering the community that we all share. Many of the GMC Foundation’s donors are well-known for their gifts. They take pride in their community and believe in the mission of Gwinnett Medical Center, which is to provide superior quality of care and to transform healthcare for our community and beyond. Brad Howard with mother Barbara BRAD AND BARBARA HOWARD Suzanna’s Kitchen in Duluth recently celebrated 50 years in business with a $100,000 contribution to the GMC Foundation’s Open Heart campaign. Barbara Howard, president, and her son Brad, chief operating officer, thought it would be a great way to give back to their community. “We have been truly blessed to be a part of Gwinnett,” Barbara Howard says. “Having the highest quality healthcare for our citizens is top priority.” With cancer hitting so close to home for Howard, she was compelled to give another gift. Howard, who is a colon cancer survivor and whose late husband, Henry, lost his battle with bladder cancer, says she could not think of a better way to show her appreciation for the excellent medical care they received at GMC than to make a $100,000 personal donation to the new, state-of-the-art Gwinnett Breast Center. The Howard family’s dedication and commitment to the Foundation is one that can only be described as faithful. 52 Vim & Vigor · W I N TER 2 011
