Community hospitals like Beverly Hospital serve as anchor institutions—offering reliable, high-quality health care that spans routine health and well-being to critical, life-saving care that is always accessible, close to home. Through the campaign to revitalize and renovate the Walter and Yvonne Wood Birthing Center, Beverly Hospital is creating a state-of-the-art facility to match the high standard of care provided within.
Yvonne Wood’s incredible gift of $1.5M jumpstarted the campaign to revitalize the Walter and Yvonne Wood Birthing Center at Beverly Hospital. Enhancement of this critical space will continue to ensure the high-quality care that the community relies on for all their obstetrics and birthing needs.
Recently, we spoke with Yvonne Wood, a longtime Cape Ann resident and supporter of both Beverly and Addison Gilbert Hospitals, who recently made the lead gift of $1.5 million to support the Beverly Hospital Birthing Center. Learn more about her relationship with these hospitals, why this community is so important to her, and her reasons for giving.
