Nearly 1,000 people crowded into the Bellevue Hyatt’s Grand Ballroom on March 29 to attend Overlake Medical Center’s 2014 Bandage Ball gala and auction and raised nearly $1 million to help fund a new, $15 million comprehensive, state-of-the-art cancer center.
“This year’s Bandage Ball was hugely successful and exceeded our expectations,” said Molly Stearns, Overlake’s vice president of fund development and executive director of the foundation & auxiliaries. “We are eternally grateful for the continuing support of this generous community and are committed to ensuring our patients receive the best possible care here at Overlake.”
The new center will reconfigure cancer outpatient services for more seamless coordinated care, expand integrative and supportive services, enhance Overlake’s focus on patient-centered care and increase the hospital’s capacity to meet the growing needs of the Eastside community.
