Happy Saint Patrick’s Day from the LUH Foundation! 🍀
Lots of staff were dressed in green today, but here’s Eileen Newman fully in spirit. Eileen is a volunteer here at the hospital and even used to be one of our Caring Clowns!
Special thanks to our volunteer department. Ann Huggins, coordinator of the volunteer program, says, “Volunteers make the world go round,” and we couldn’t agree more! Don’t forget volunteers run our gift shop. Stop in as things are always being added!

On February 12, the LUH Foundation teamed up with Longmont’s Küper Wine Bar for a special evening called Vine Voyage- an exclusive gathering for our wonderful VIPs and donors right here at Longmont United Hospital.
It was the perfect way to inspire our community: sharing powerful stories of the compassionate care our foundation and incredible hospital team provide every day, all while savoring outstanding wines, strolling through a beautiful art walk featuring unique local pieces, and enjoying meaningful connections with great company!
We were honored to hear heartfelt insights from Dr. David Donahue, Foundation Executive Director Josh Atherton, LUH Hospital President Deb Mohesky, and dedicated LUH Nurse Carol Anne White.
Warmest thanks to Stephanie Blakley and Laura Faccone for making the night even more special with their incredible custom art pieces, created just for the event!

⭐️ Artist Highlight ⭐️
Artwork by Erin Joy Parrot is currently hanging in our ArtWalkway for another month and available for purchase! You’ll see Erin’s work in two locations down the ArtWalk with both originals and framed prints showcased!
Erin’s artwork “is inspired by ecosystem science and traditional botanical illustration. Her work prioritizes biological accuracy in form and concept, combining species that would exist in the same ecosystem often in reaction to one another. Her illustration is a celebration of nature, and a gentle reminder that in order to protect the natural world, be must be struck by its wonder and inspired by its beauty.”
