Columbia Medical Advancements Fund
From its founding in 1909 when a group of key physicians and business leaders developed the idea for a new medical center, Columbia Hospital has been a leader in our medical community and has served the citizens of Milwaukee well.
As we move into a new era for Columbia St. Mary's, we wish to celebrate the spirit of Columbia Hospital and to honor the contributions of those who built such a strong tradition of medical advancements.
To uphold this legacy, we are honored to announce the establishment of the Columbia Medical Advancements Fund.
The Columbia Medical Advancements Fund will honor the 100 years of service that physicians, nurses and other caregivers provided at Columbia Hospital. In the proud innovative spirit of Columbia, the fund will be dedicated to purchasing state-of-the-art medical equipment for the new, consolidated Columbia St. Mary's Hospital Milwaukee.
To help us build our tomorrow, we ask that you make a gift to the Columbia Medical Advancements Fund. Your gift will help us continue the tradition of advanced treatments and technologies that Columbia Hospital was founded on.
Each year our physicians and staff will be involved in determining what the funds are used for. Whatever the program or equipment is, the impact of your gift will surely be felt by thousands of patients for years to come.
All gifts are welcome - large or small - but with a gift of $500 or more you will receive a premiere copy of our Columbia Hospital 100th Anniversary book, available in late spring 2010.

Dr. Bradley W. Mays Tribute Garden
July 2009 marks the one year anniversary of the passing of our peer and friend, Dr. Bradley W. Mays. We remember him as a brilliant surgeon, his passion for his life's work and how he improved the lives of thousands of patients.
Over the past year, many physicians and other caregivers who worked closely with Brad have indicated their wishes to create a lasting tribute to the impact he had on his peers, patients and the greater community.
Those of us who knew him well know that, in addition to his passion for patient care, Brad also had a love of the outdoors. As you may know, Brad studied Botany as an undergraduate student and devoted much of his free time pursuing his love of gardening.
Over the past few months, we have designed a tribute garden for Columbia St. Mary's Hospital Ozaukee - to be known as the "Dr. Bradley Mays Tribute Garden" - that reflects many symbolic connections with Brad.
This garden will be located directly north of the cafeteria on the Garden Level of the Ozaukee hospital. It will feature lush plant life, a beautiful water fountain and serve as a place for caregivers and patients to find respite from their busy day.

Physicians: Click here to make your gift.

With these efforts, Brad's deep connection to both staff and patients will always be reinforced by those who pay tribute for the care received at Columbia St. Mary's.
