HSHS St. Francis Hospital is in the midst of its 150th year of providing care to the communities in central Illinois and has committed to a full year of public events and activities to highlight the rich history and continued growth over the many decades.
To extend the celebration outside the hospital’s walls, St. Francis is announcing a special opportunity for area businesses and groups to participate in a Community Cake Walk to further highlight the vibrant spirit of our community and bring foot traffic to our area.
The Cake Walk is a fun and engaging way to bring people to area businesses or organizations while celebrating the hospital’s long-time service to the community. Area businesses are invited to participate by decorating and displaying a large outdoor cake at their location. Cakes will be on display during the months of October and November.
The public and all St. Francis Hospital colleagues will be encouraged to visit each business as part of the Cake Walk, where they will have the chance to vote for their favorite decorated cake. Prizes will be awarded to the winning business and to the public in a drawing for those who visit every location.
If your business or organization is interested in participating or has any questions, contact Paula Endress, St. Francis Foundation Program Manager of Philanthropy at Paula.Endress@hshs.org or sign up here (https://forms.office.com/
Participating businesses will construct and decorate their own cake with any unique style and theme they choose. The deadline to participate and order a cake is Sept. 15.
Watch for many more 150th Anniversary celebration event information to be shared in the new year. For more information about St. Francis Hospital, visit www.stfrancis-litchfield.org.
