Poettker Construction donates $10,000

May 27, 2024 

Poettker Construction recently donated $10,000 to HSHS St. Joseph’s Foundation in Breese to benefit HSHS St. Joseph’s Friends Van Program. 

Supported by St. Joseph’s Foundation in Breese, the Friends Van is completely free to riders who do not have access to transportation or cannot drive to their medical appointments. The Friends Van provides transportation to medical, dental and other personal appointments. Medical appointments are a priority, and includes visits to physicians, dentists, chiropractors, pharmacies and HSHS St. Joseph’s Hospital. 

“We are so thankful for generous donors like Poettker Construction,” shared David Garris, Director of HSHS Southern Illinois Foundations. “The Friends Van is a great way for the community to come together to support each other and relieves patients of the stress of finding transportation to their appointments.”

The Friends Van is fully funded by generous donations, such as the donation by Poettker Construction in Breese. If you are interested in donating to the Friends Van, visit here and select “Donate Now.”
