Health giving: no subscription hospital, one steady tournament of a fundraiser

ROW 83-8 · DUG · THE NEGATIVES AND THE COURSE, WHOLE

Health giving on this ground begins with two negatives, printed first because they are the frame:What the ground does have is smaller and, in one case, remarkably durable.

The durable case is Roofsit. Martin's Super Markets' annual fundraiser for child-abuse prevention — volunteers sit on a store roof while the community gives — reached its thirtieth annual running in 2026, and the trade record of that season fixes the cumulative figure: more than $3.8 million raised over thirty years for local child-abuse programs. The Granger seat of the course is documented in the same report: in June 2026 the Martin's at Heritage Square, 7355 Heritage Square Drive, completed a store refresh, cut a ribbon for it, and presented a $2,500 check to Prevent Child Abuse St. Joseph County, its store director Bryan Stratton presenting — the banked Businesses leg carries the same ceremony from the chain's side. Thirty years, $3.8 million, one supermarket chain and one county cause: it is the closest thing this ground has to the checklist's "tournament's steady money," and it prints at that identification, as a grocer's fundraiser rather than a hospital's.

The remaining documented health-giving items print at their source-line strength, as the audit found them: the South Bend Clinic's contribution of about $75,000 toward extending Mishawaka water and sewer service to its Fir Road campus (carried in the banked health record at that strength — an infrastructure contribution, not a charitable campaign); and Beacon Health System's Granger establishments — the Main Street medical campus and Beacon Health & Fitness Granger (opened November 2016; three million member visits in its first decade, on the system's own anniversary account) — which are corporate builds of a health system, not subscription or donor builds, and are printed as commerce, not giving. The hospital-foundation course the checklist asks after belongs, for this ground, to Memorial and Beacon foundations seated in South Bend; their Granger-campus donor record is a named settler (Beacon Health Foundation's donor rolls) and is not filled from inference here.
