In 2017, ON Semiconductor in Nampa made an incredible gift of $30,000 to St. Luke's Nampa to found the West Treasure Valley Patient Assistance Fund for our needy patients. This tremendous support has allowed our social workers to identify patients with significant financial barriers and provide them with everything from gas cards to rent assistance and so many important things in between. Without this fund, our social workers would not be able to help young mothers with diapers and other supplies for their newborns, taxi vouchers so patients in need can get home safely, or food for the backpacks of pediatric patients so they have healthy snacks for school. This fund is a tremendous asset to our community and patient population, vast majority of which are on Medicaid and assisted food programs in their schools.
