Annual Golf Outing

June 12, 2020
Marquette Golf Club

The Superior Health Foundation Annual Golf Outing, proudly presented by A. Lindberg & Sons and Fraco, is scheduled for Friday, June 12 at the Marquette Golf Club. The event, which will begin with a shotgun start at 10 a.m., will again have a number of whacky, fun holes and a number of awesome prizes to win!

This year, SHF is proud to partner with the Caregiver Incentive Project.

The Caregiver Incentive Project (CIP) is driven to increase the number of caregivers in our area by working with local universities to fund scholarships to incentivize students to consider being an in-home caregiver.

It’s a real need. It’s a national crisis. And, the Superior Health Foundation is committed to doing its part to help support this start-up, non-profit with enhanced visibility and at least $5,000 in funding to really get off the ground.

We’re excited to work with the CIP, Eric Paad and his board of directors on the golf outing.

We are now actively seeking sponsors and teams for the event. Lunch ($1,500), Prize ($1,000), Awards Program ($500), Fun hole ($250) and Hole Sponsorships ($100) are now being accepted.

Several weeks ago, the Superior Health Foundation partnered with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan to provide funding to public schools in the U.P. to assure lunches are available. BCBS and SHF each committed $12,500 in funding to the project.
We're pleased to report that dozens of school districts across the region have been provided funding to help them through the Covid-19 Pandemic.
There are limited dollars still remaining in the fund. If interested in applying, simply visit superiorhealthfoundation.org and click on the Covid-19 Relief School Meal Funding Application.
The map below and accompanying info show the U.P. counties impacted by this funding. It goes without saying that SHF is tremendously grateful to BCBS of Michigan for engaging SHF on this incredible partnership to feed our children.

As many of you know, the Superior Health Foundation launched the Covid-19 Pandemic Fund a week ago today to help health-centered, non-profits and organizations across the Upper Peninsula with immediate equipment, sanitary supplies and other other needs. We want to hear from you.
To date, we have funded a number of organizations across the U.P. and we want to do more. We're willing and able to talk, to listen, to help you during this unprecedented time.
To apply for funding, for up to $1,000, simply visit superiorhealthfoundation.org and click on the Covid-19 Pandemic Fund button on the home page.
We also encourage you to give a charitable, tax-deductible git to help support this fund. With your generosity, we can help many, many during this time of angst and uncertainty. You can direct your gift to the area of greatest need, to masks, to cleaning supplies and to office equipment.
Thank you for your tremendous support. If you have questions or needs, simply email shf@superiorhealthfoundation.org.

Covid-19 Update on UP Connect/Rides For Wellness for Non-Emergent Medical Transportation in the U.P.
----------------------------------------------------

At this time, public transit agencies across the Upper Peninsula and the MTC ConnectUP Rides To Wellness program are still operating as normal. We are still accepting trip requests and fulfilling them and will continue to do so as long as our transportation partners remain open and functioning.
As everything with the new reality we are living under the Covid-19 pandemic, this situation is fluid and can change on a daily basis. Unless transit agencies are forced to suspend operations, though, we intend to still be able to function and schedule trips.
We are seeing a lot of medical appointments cancelled, some by the medical providers and some by the riders who do not choose to venture out of their homes. We have worked with all of our providers to make sure that vehicles are properly cleaned and disinfected on a regular daily schedule, often several times per day.
We have temporarily suspended further build-out of our transportation provider network and have cut back significantly on bringing on new funding partners; however, due to the uncertainty of the current situation.
All of our MTC employees are currently working remotely from their homes.
We are hopeful that the immediate danger from the coronavirus will pass quickly and that we can resume full operations in the not-too-distant future.
