More than 60 community members, friends and supporters of Verdugo Hills Hospital (VHH) attended the recent bingo luncheon hosted by the Women’s Council at the hospital. The event raised $2,000 for VHH. The proceeds will go toward the purchase of needed capital equipment.

“Our bingo event is an annual fundraising event sponsored by the Women’s Council for the benefit of Verdugo Hills Hospital. It is an event that brings friends and the community out to support our wonderful hospital in a fun-filled afternoon. A big thanks to Chris Rothrock for her skill in planning and executing the event,” said Betty Hurn, chair of the Women’s Council.

The Women’s Council of the VHH Foundation was founded shortly after VHH opened its doors in 1972. The focus of the Women’s Council for the remainder of the year includes the installation of the 2013 council’s board of directors and VHH’s Poinsettia Ball/40th Anniversary Celebration, which is set for Dec. 1 at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles.
