伊甸園醫療中心已向聖萊安德羅的大衛斯街家庭資源中心食品儲藏室捐贈了10，000美元。這筆捐款是Sutter Health向北加州以及俄勒岡州和夏威夷州的28家食品銀行捐贈265，000美元的一部分。非營利性健康網路的捐贈使當地食品銀行能夠為有需要的人提供健康的膳食或食品袋。
“Many of the most vulnerable people in our community—including children and seniors—worry every day about where their next meal is coming from,” said Stephen Gray, CEO of Eden Medical Center. “I’m very proud that Eden and Sutter Health have made this donation to support the Davis Street Family Resource Center Food Pantry. By helping feed our neighbors, we’re supporting a healthier community.”
“We’re thankful to Eden Medical Center and Sutter Health’s commitment to our community. Their gift will help replenish our barren shelves and support the thousands of working poor families and seniors that turn to us to help put food on the table,” said Rose Padilla Johnson, CEO Davis Street Resource Center Food Pantry.
Sutter Health’s donations to community food banks over the past 10 years total more than $2 million—which has fed countless individuals and families.

Sutter Health’s Commitment to Communities
As a not-for-profit organization, Sutter Health believes in giving back. Sutter Health’s total community benefit investment was $612 million in 2017. These funds supported traditional charity care, unreimbursed Medi-Cal costs, health education and community clinics. Locally Sutter Health and Eden Medical Center invest in Davis Street’s Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) and the Tiburcio Vasquez Health Center to expand access to medical and behavioral health services.
