This is the eighth Family Festival the Foundation has organized to benefit the exceptional care provided by the physicians and staff of West Jefferson. Thanks to sponsors and community support, the proceeds directly benefit the hospital’s programs including the Cancer Center, the Pediatric ER, Rehab Services, Cardiology, Community Outreach, and so much more to help provide nationally recognized health care services to the West Bank community and beyond. 


During the festival, several of our grateful patients, who are cancer and stroke survivors, will share stories about the life-saving care they received at WJMC. They’re truly inspiring and you’ll see how all the fun you and your loved ones have at the Fest can make a difference in the lives of our patients.
