With the end of the year fast approaching, there is still time to make those tax-deductible donations. Donating to a worthy nonprofit organization or group is a great way to give back and support them for doing good work for our community.

One local and worthy nonprofit organization is Big Sandy Medical Services Foundation. It was established in 1989 to foster better healthcare in the Big Sandy community and to support Big Sandy Medical Center. They sponsor scholarships to encourage and assist young people who are pursuing training in the healthcare field. To date 104 scholarships totaling $35,600 have been awarded. This year’s recipient was Madison Terry, majoring in nursing at MSU-Bozeman.

And this year’s project is again the BSMC kitchen which was constructed as part of the nursing home addition in 1985. This very important and vital area is badly in need of renovation. The Foundation has raised over $15,000 so far but more is needed.

Make checks payable to BSMS Foundation, PO Box 530, Big Sandy MT 59520.

Please help us with this important project by donating today. Thank you.
