2024 Ambassador Challenge underway at Evangelical Community Hospital | News, Sports, Jobs



Evangelical Community Hospital is once again holding The Ambassador Challenge, a month-long fundraising competition where the Ambassadors promote the hospital’s mission and encourage donations that support hospital services and programs.

Chris Coup, of The Coup Agency; Gwen Edwards, PsyD, Evangelical Community Hospital; and Andy Long of W&L Auto Group are serving as this year’s ambassadors.

In 2023, the challenge raised over $181,000 for Evangelical’s vital health care services and outreach.

For the 2024 campaign, the Hospital’s ambassadors will work to give voice to the hospital’s impact on the Central Susquehanna Valley throughout May.

Each ambassador has been challenged to raise $10,000 toward the overall goal all while sharing information about programs and services the hospital provides. The goal of the Ambassador Challenge, through all activities, is to raise $100,000 to support the Evangelical Care Fund, the cornerstone of charitable support.

The Evangelical Care Fund provides a foundation of financial support for Community Health and Wellness screenings, events, and education; Mobile Health of Evangelical; Evangelical Regional Mobile Medical Services (ERMMS), the hospital’s paramedic and EMT response; The Family Place, the hospital’s obstetrics unit; Hospice of Evangelical, end-of-life care; and more.

The community is invited to support the challenge by:

• Donating to one or more of the ambassadors as they participate in a friendly competition to raise the most funds.

• Participating in an online auction featuring a range of items from local businesses and more. Some key items up for bid include a getaway to Sedona, Arizona; Isabella’s Italian dinner prepared in your home for six; Rusty Rail Brewing Co. dinner for two and stay in their luxury suites; 30-minute family session with Lewisburg Studio by Melo Foto; Orca Walker 20 can soft side cooler; Penn State Men’s Ice Hockey tickets; wine tasting for 10 at Union Cellars; and more. (Bidding open from May 3 through May 31)

To participate, visit www.EvanHospital.com/Ambassador until the end of May. The Ambassador of the Year, winners of the auction items and the final fundraising results will be announced in June.

This year’s Ambassador Challenge is made possible by the generous support of sponsors including Bucknell University, Griffith Development, McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC, Mifflinburg Bank & Trust, Remmey — The Pallet Company and Weis Markets, as well as many other businesses and organizations who are recognized on the Ambassador website.
