The Xanadu October Community Cocktail bubbles up in support of the CMH Foundation.

The Witches Cauldron is a bewitching blend of vodka, raspberry liqueur, triple sec, and house-made sour mix, shaken to perfection and served in a martini glass.

With each drink sold, $3 goes directly to the CMH Foundation, supporting the BuildCMH Expansion Project all month long!

Since 2009, CMH has added more than 400 area jobs. We anticipate the BuildCMH Expansion Project will initially add 50 new jobs upon its opening in 2027. As we add more providers and services to our organization, more jobs will continue to be created in our community.

Over the past decade, CMH and OHSU have attracted many new providers and specialties to the North Coast, increasing the number of caregivers from 400 to more than 900.

As a result, we’re outgrowing our current facility, and CMH is undergoing the BuildCMH Expansion Project to provide additional space and services needed in our region.

Last month, the West Lobby parking lot and 20th Street, between Exchange Street and Franklin Avenue, were closed to make way for the construction of the new hospital. We look forward to seeing the progress over the next few months as major changes begin to take place.

The design for the BuildCMH Expansion Project will follow CMH’s commitment to the Planetree philosophy of person-centered care. Like the CMH-OHSU Knight Cancer Collaborative and the CMH Health & Wellness Pavilion, the expansion project will reflect the region’s architecture and beauty, emphasizing natural light, views and efficiency in the delivery of care.

Exciting changes are happening on the CMH campus in Astoria as the construction team begins working on the foundation for the BuildCMH Expansion Project.

Earlier this month, patients were routed to a new main entrance and parking area at the back of the hospital. For the two-year duration of the BuildCMH project, patients will enter through the back doors leading to our Gift Shop Atrium.

Inspiring Transformational Philanthropy

About 137 years ago a group of citizens realized that a hospital was a critical need in the community. They raised money and came together to create a resource that went beyond walls to care for those needing health and hope—in the present and the future. They created a resource that grew and expanded to help thousands of people they never met. Today, generous donors continue to protect and expand that mission to develop health resources that will live beyond them. That will continue to serve a growing, thriving region. With your philanthropy, we will gift our present and future with advanced healthcare.
