Coryell Health is proud to announce that its staff raised an impressive $22,615 for the Gatesville Care Center through this year’s Food for Families fundraising efforts. This remarkable total—raised exclusively by Coryell Health employees—reflects the dedication, generosity, and community spirit of the entire team.
Throughout the week, staff participated in friendly team competitions, special events, and numerous raffles, selling an exceptional number of raffle tickets to support the cause. The fundraiser wrapped up yesterday, which also marked National Rural Health Day, underscoring the role rural healthcare organizations play in supporting local families and strengthening community well-being.
Coryell Health CEO David Byrom praised the team’s extraordinary efforts, stating: “It is truly impressive to see our staff achieve $22,615 in fundraising efforts alone. A lot of raffle tickets were sold this week to help us reach this goal. We’re proud to celebrate National Rural Health Day with our team raising money to help feed Central Texans, continue our mission, and honor the unwavering commitment of our rural healthcare providers and staff who work every day to improve the lives of others.”
National Rural Health Day recognizes the dedication of rural health professionals and communities while highlighting the unique challenges they face. Coryell Health’s contribution to the Gatesville Care Center reflects this commitment in action—supporting neighbors who are experiencing food insecurity, many of whom are elderly residents or patients who rely on both medical and basic-needs support.
All funds raised will directly benefit the Gatesville Care Center, which provides essential food assistance to families throughout Coryell County.
