The Circle of Friends is a group of loyal and generous donors who support the mission of Queen of the Valley Medical Center with regular annual gifts. There are no dues or fees to join and membership is open to all who make cash gifts of $500 or more during the year.
Friends are invited to select health education events, highlighted by an exclusive members-only reception held each year in a unique Napa Valley location. Each reception is highlighted by an informative healthcare discussion featuring physicians practicing at Queen of the Valley Medical Center. This year’s reception is no exception. It will be held at the new Dominari Winery and the topic will be “Plans for a Neuroscience Program” on Thursday, February 18th from 6:00 – 7:30 pm.
Maxine Jacobs, the volunteer Chair of the Circle of Friends, says “Joining Circle of Friends is a ‘moving’ way for me to give to the Queen. It helps to know that my money is going to something that will benefit the community.”
“The annual reception is not only fun, but educational and entertaining,” says Maxine. “It’s interesting to find out what the physicians offer in the way of new technology at the Queen. The members seem to get so much out of it. There were so many questions at the last one; we almost went over our time limit! It’s also a way to meet with the Foundation Board members one-on-one.”
In addition to a reception, basic Circle of Friends’ benefits include invitations to other healthcare presentations, recognitions in Foundation publications, a membership card, a lapel pin and flowers upon admission to the Medical Center.
