Summary

The Rural Health Center planned to furnish the new facility while preserving as much of the $200,000 grant cushion as possible. The strategy combined reusable existing furnishings and X-ray equipment, used items from Munson Medical Center and Dr. Brad Grassmick, a possible tribal grant, donor naming opportunities, and donated or loaned Island artwork.

Evidence limits

This is a proposed furnishing strategy, not a final inventory, fundraising total, or completed installation record.
