A MESSAGE
from the Avera McKennan Foundation President
W. Tim Kromminga
Thank you for your support through this past year. The impact you have made can be seen every day
through our patient and family experiences in a variety of areas. Your financial contributions have
provided enhanced environments for Avera’s tiniest babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)
and aging seniors at the new Avera Prince of Peace, continued genomic cancer research for cancer
patients at Avera Cancer Institute and lodging for out-of-town families at the Walsh Family Village.
This list goes on, which demonstrates the significance of your support!
Your support ensures our healing mission can continue serving those in need, extending the healing
ministry of Jesus. Your gifts to benefit the NICU support babies and their families during one of the
most critical times of their lives. The newly renovated NICU facility provides private rooms to improve
the family experience, laundry facilities to allow for convenience during extended stays and access to
the Women’s Center amenities and chapel to further our mission and help reduce stress during critical
moments. Thank you for making these advancements possible.
The ever-changing world of cancer care continues to make strides through cutting-edge genomic cancer
research. Thanks to your contributions, genomic research improves our treatment approach which
ultimately leads to more lives saved. We are fortunate to have philanthropic support from partners like
you who pave the way for transforming cancer care.
In conjunction with the cancer genomic research program, the Avera McKennan Foundation recently
received the Community Innovation Grant from the Bush Foundation. With these funds, the Avera Rural
Cancer Advisory Board was formed to aid in research and gain a better understanding of the unique
circumstances of farmers when faced with a cancer diagnosis. We are excited to work with this volunteer
group to glean their expertise and reduce barriers for cancer care in rural communities.
The future of health care is ever changing. Thanks to planned gifts, Avera McKennan can ensure our
healing ministry will be available for future generations. Just as Helen McKennan made her planned gift
over 100 years ago, we are grateful to those who have included Avera McKennan in their estate or will.
Your gifts impact our communities for centuries.
Throughout our annual report you will see firsthand the impact you have made for patients and families.
Whether it’s supporting an annual event, capital campaign or ensuring the mission of Avera is available
for generations to come through planned giving, your support enhances the lives of the community.
Thank you.

THANK YOU FOR
CELEBRATING
The 27th Annual Avera Race: A Soaring Success
The 27th Annual Avera Race Against Breast Cancer proves that everyone is a hero! Having raised over $400,000
to benefit the lives of the many brave cancer patients and families in our community, all who supported can take
pride in going head-to-head against cancer. This year more than 5,500 participants put on their superhero
capes along with numerous volunteers, sponsors and supporters. Thank you for another cancer-crushing year!
strike a pose Racers and Raisers Get Creative
Over 240 teams registered for the 2015 Avera Race Against Breast Cancer.
Every year, more and more Avera Race attendees showcase their support in
style with crazy costumes, fun team names and unique ways to honor those
affected by cancer. Whether running in a tutu or eating a Sloppy Joe to support
“Cindy’s Pink Posse,” the Avera Race continues to stir up smiles. Thank you
to everyone for making this event stylish and successful!
You Did It. Now It’s Our Turn.
Whether it’s crossing the finish line, making a general contribution or
volunteering your time, you play an important part in caring for the community.
One hundred percent of all proceeds continue to benefit local survivors and families
through a variety of ways such as:
• Cutting-edge Genomic Cancer Research.
• Care for the body, mind and spirit with Integrative Medicine services.
• Guidance and support through the Cancer Navigation Program.
• Feeling strong and healthy with the Cancer Fitness Program.
• Ongoing support and relationship building through a variety of Survivorship Programs.

Avera McKennan Foundation
RURAL REALIZATION
New Cancer Advisory Board
Begins GroundBreaking
Outreach Initiative
Hexad Farms
“Every oncologist has a tale of a farmer
diagnosed with cancer around harvest
time and the hopeless look on the face
of the patient as a treatment plan
is described.”
Thanks to a Community Innovation Grant from the Bush
Foundation, the Avera Cancer Institute has developed an outreach
effort to reduce barriers to treatment for rural residents of South
Dakota and outlying states. To begin planting the seeds among
local farmers and ranchers, a board consisting of rural residents,
oncologists, community partners and Avera staff has been formed.
Officially called the Avera Rural Cancer Advisory Board, its first
official meeting was held on October 5, 2015. Earlier this summer,
board member Walt Bones invited Avera oncologists to tour his
family’s grain and lifestock operation, Hexad Farms, near Parker,
S.D. The physicians gained a better understanding of the lifestyle of
the rural patients.
Awareness, Screening & Education
“Regardless of their health, I think farmers
are ingrained with how much is at risk
when a crop is ready to be harvested.
When it’s ready to go, it’s ready to go.”
Walter Bones,
Farmer, Hexad Farms
Walt Bones
Those who work hard to feed others often find themselves in
a state of starvation when it comes to cancer care. And it’s not
necessarily access. The demands of traditional farm and ranch
life are the main issues and serve as the driving force for this
groundbreaking initiative. A farmer’s lifestyle is not always
conducive to preventive health measures and treatments.
This board is taking the time to explain first hand just how a
rural resident lives, so Avera’s skilled team of providers can
begin forming a plan to transform cancer care.
Jim Woster
Jim Woster, co-chair of Avera’s Rural Cancer Advisory Board,
worked in the livestock industry for years. His advisory board
role includes listening to rural residents, whose input will
inform Avera’s work to improve its cancer-related care. He
and other volunteer rural residents have committed their
time and energy to form this board and welcome feedback
from the community and others who wish to get involved.
The Avera Health System is also working to establish a new
call center to provide 24/7 support to its cancer patients in
the future. For more information on the Avera Rural Cancer
Advisory Board, please call 605-322-8900.

Thanks to the generosity of the community, guests gathered on May 15 to mark the grand opening of
the new Avera Prince of Peace. Guests toured the new facility and had a fun time “Honoring the Eras” as
they maneuvered through various areas of themed décor and music. Since 2013, the Avera McKennan
Foundation has been raising funds to support the Caring for Community: Campaign for Avera Prince of
Peace. Included in that campaign was the Focus on Faith Sacred Heart Chapel which was dedicated in
honor of the late Jeremiah Murphy thanks to a generous matching gift and loyal donors. Through your
gifts, more than $3 million was raised to construct the state-of-the-art facility which includes a centralized
and expanded chapel, private rooms and unique Main Street concept. Today, residents, family members
and staff are taking full advantage of the enhanced amenities and are thankful for the opportunity to
further Avera’s mission thanks to your gifts.
