Foundation Completes $2 Million Campaign
When it comes to Breast Cancer, early detection saves lives. Providing high quality, comprehensive breast cancer detection requires a fully equipped imaging center with state-of-the-art technology. The Skagit Valley Hospital Foundation understood this need and committed to raise $2 million to help build and equip a new Women's Imaging Center to serve patients in the region.
An Opportunity to Revolutionize Breast Cancer Detection in the Region
The Women's Imaging Center resides inside the 4,000 square foot Skagit Imaging Pavilion adjacent to Skagit Valley Hospital in Mount Vernon. Dedicated to breast imaging, the Women's Imaging Center features state-of-the-art equipment including 3D Digital Breast Tomosynthesis mammography, ultrasound, CT, MRI and Stereotactic Breast Biopsy.
Driven by Donor Generosity
The humbling generosity of our donors and pragmatic hospital leadership to turn this project into a reality truly motivates the Foundation in being a partner to bring the best healthcare into our region. - Zach Barborinas, Campaign co-chair
