The Seedling Award

The Seedling Award honors a young individual, youth group, or someone new to philanthropy who has demonstrated outstanding commitment to serving others and making a meaningful impact on healthcare in our region. 

This award recognizes those whose generosity, compassion, and dedication go beyond themselves—whether through fundraising efforts, volunteerism or innovative initiatives that support Jamestown Regional Medical Center and the well-being of our community. Their passion for giving, even in the early stages of their philanthropic journey, inspires others and strengthens the future of healthcare.
