Southern Illinois Healthcare and the SIH Foundation would like to invite you to attend the 7th Annual Gala event on Friday, April 13, 2018. The festivities begin at 6:00 pm at the SIU Student Center Ballrooms & International Lounge. The evening will consist of a collection of gourmet tastes presented in a station atmosphere, live music and dancing and auction with mobile bidding.  Please plan to attend this prestigious and entertaining event. 

Charitable gifts through the SIH Foundation provide capital improvements to best serve ever changing healthcare needs, supply equipment and resources to enhance operational excellence and to fund the SIH Patient & Community Support Funds. These funds directly impact the lives of those friends and family dealing with a financial crisis brought on by a cancer diagnosis or a medical need.  This year's proceeds will benefit the SIH Patient & Community Supports Funds to help patients in need during medical treatment and to further the efforts of providing quality patient care throughout southern Illinois.

The SIH Patient & Community Support Funds have distributed over  $1 million dollars helping over 13,815 patients in need.
