The Community Difference Award
The Community Difference Award is JRMC’s way of recognizing and celebrating the incredible organizations that go above and beyond to support our mission. These organizations play a vital role in ensuring that JRMC continues to provide legendary healthcare to our community.
Whether through sponsoring our signature events, supporting the AppleSeeds quarterly publication, or championing essential programs, these organizations make a profound impact—helping to fund initiatives that might not otherwise be possible. Their generosity and dedication strengthen our ability to care for patients, invest in new technology and expand critical services.
This award is our opportunity to express our deepest gratitude to these outstanding partners. Their support doesn’t just make a difference—it creates a lasting legacy of care, compassion and community.
