Reserve Your Seat in the St. Luke’s
Legacy Today!

While the beautiful new entrance to St. Luke’s Emergency Department gives the illusion that the hospital’s expansion project is complete, there is still much more to do.

“Construction continues inside the hospital,” said Barbara H. Mulville, CFRE, Vice President of External Affairs for Southcoast. “And we are still raising funds to complete the New St. Luke’s.”

You can support the project and create a lasting legacy for you or a loved one by purchasing a Tile in Tribute or a chair in the McBratney Amphitheater.

The McBratney Amphitheater is a 121- seat facility that will serve Southcoast and the community as a medical education and meeting venue.

Chairs in the first six rows of the amphitheater are available for purchase. Those who support the campaign this way will have a commemorative brass plate affixed to the back of a chair with the inscription of their choice. A donation of $1,040 is required for a chair in rows one through three and a donation of $780 is asked for a chair in rows four through six.

Tiles in Tribute are custom-engraved 6-inch by 12-inch tiles that will create a memorable walkway to health through the newly constructed areas. They will be visible in the lobby of the amphitheater and waiting room of the new Emergency Department and are available for $260.

“Supporting the Campaign for a New St. Luke’s through the purchase of a chair or a tile is a wonderful way for donors to create a lasting legacy for themselves or a loved one,” Mulville said. “It is a great opportunity to become a permanent part of St. Luke’s history.”
