This month we’re kicking off our new donor-focused series with a longtime BHF corporate donor, our generous friends over at Boston Scientific. Shawn Williams, Principal HR Business Partner at Boston Scientific’s Spencer location and BHF board member, discusses Boston’s community involvement below.
Why does Boston Scientific support the Bloomington Health Foundation?
One of Boston Scientific’s core values is Caring. We act with integrity and compassion to support patients, customers, our communities and each other. Our Spencer, Indiana facility is dedicated to making sure that the health outcomes in our community are better because of Boston Scientific’s actions; including financial support, volunteer help, and advocacy. It is natural for us to partner with the Bloomington Health Foundation and support their vision to address our community’s most pressing health needs.
