Led by the Foundation’s W.H.A.T. Club Committee, TriState employees pledge their time and financial support as part of the Foundation’s W.H.A.T. Club, which was named by the committee and stands for “We Help Achieve Tomorrow.”
Throughout each year, the W.H.A.T. Club Committee is given the opportunity to decide on project(s) to put employee-raised funds toward. Given the Foundation’s “Enhancing the Patient & Employee Experience” over time the dedicated funds have upgraded the family waiting rooms in the hospital’s ICU, Medical/Surgical, Emergency, and Day Surgery areas with the hope of creating a more peaceful and comforting environment for family and friends while visiting loved ones. They also dedicated funds to updating the appearance of the hospital cafeteria, and through an employee contest, has renamed the cafeteria the “1221 Campus Café.” There are many examples of how the W.H.A.T. Club Committee has helped enhance your TriState experience.
