Regional West Health Services is getting a financial boost from a women's apparel brand. maurices is donating $5,000 to the health care facility in support of healthcare workers on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic.

maurices recently announced it is donating $250,000 to multiple rural community hospitals. The donation went to the Regional West Foundation which operates as part of Regional West Health Services.

We are proud to support our local healthcare workers who are on the front lines treating patients in rural hospitals. These individuals are truly hometown healthcare heroes,” maurices President and CEO George Goldfarb said.

“We would like to thank maurices not only for their generous donation, but for their support of our healthcare workers as they work tirelessly to provide exceptional care during this unprecedented time,” Regional West Health Services President and CEO John Mentgen said. “This donation, along with others we have received from local and area businesses and individuals, is gratefully received.”

maurices said they selected Regional West and other rural community hospitals in markets that are representative of the brand’s full chain.

Goldfarb said maurices wanted to support rural area hospitals because they often don't get the support they need.
