Letter from Foundation Leadership We hope you enjoy the Spring 2015 issue of True North, as we have included many photos from the 2015 NCMC Foundation Gala, which by all accounts was a tremendous success. A record 725 people attended the 26th annual event, and a new fundraising standard was set with $230,000 in net proceeds for the North Colorado Medical Center Cancer Institute. Over the years, the NCMC Foundation Gala has become one of the top fundraising events in northern Colorado! Chris Kiser Foundation President I want to thank the 2014 Foundation board chairman, Ray Cullen, for his excellent guidance and leadership over the past year. Ray is the Executive Director of Business Development and Marketing at Hensel Phelps. His experience in both the business and nonprofit world was a major asset to the Foundation board and his leadership skills were greatly appreciated. Fortunately, Ray will remain active on the board, serving as immediate past chairman on the executive committee. I also would like to welcome Royal Lovell as the 2015 Foundation board chairman. Royal brings outstanding leadership qualities to the board, as he is President of Flood and Peterson. We look forward to continued excellence from our Foundation board leadership under Royal’s guidance. Speaking of excellence, your contributions to the Foundation make a significant impact on the overall operations of NCMC. While change remains constant in the healthcare world, experts seem to agree on one issue: reimbursements will decline, and hospitals nationwide will look to philanthropy more than ever before to provide needed funding. In healthcare philanthropy, a contribution of $1 is equal to $22 in goods and services. That is a considerable return on your philanthropic investment in our local healthcare! In 2014, the Foundation made grants to NCMC departments and internal programs totaling $1,244,256. These grants purchased important equipment like technological upgrades and new equipment for the North Colorado Medical Center Cancer Institute; architectural improvements for the Sunrise Monfort Children’s Clinic; and AEDs for the Heart Safe City program. A complete listing of the Foundation’s 2015 grants appear on page 10. All of these grants were made possible by your generous contributions to the NCMC Foundation! In addition to internal grants made to NCMC, the Foundation also administers the NCMC, Inc. Charitable Fund. This fund is designed specifically to fund worthy nonprofit organizations and initiatives in Weld County. The Charitable Fund is managed by the NCMC, Inc. Board of Directors, led by Inc. board executive Ken Schultz. In 2014, the NCMC, Inc. Charitable Fund made grants totaling $192,852 to Weld County nonprofits in categories like education, healthcare, social services, and community outreach, and supported numerous benefits, galas and fundraising dinners. Combined, that is an astounding $1,437,108 that the NCMC, Inc. Charitable Fund and the NCMC Foundation contributed to nonprofit organizations and healthcare initiatives in 2014! In an era of economic uncertainty, we are pleased to be a major source of support to essential nonprofit organizations and services in our community. We value your contributions; they DO make a difference! Thank you for your continued generosity to the North Colorado Medical Center Foundation.

Front row from left to right: Wendell Fuller, Sylvia Webster, Edwin Lesh, Jr. Back row from left to right: Roberta Ruyle, Edwin Boos, Edgar (Lefty) Bartels. The year 1975 conjures up a variety of emotions in many Americans. The long struggle in Vietnam ended with South Vietnam surrendering to North Vietnam. President Gerald Ford was our nation’s 38th president, becoming the only person to serve as Vice President and President without being elected by the Electoral College. The economy was plagued by inflation and a recession. The median United States household income was $11,800. Head coach John Wooden captured his 10th and final NCAA basketball championship at UCLA. A company named Altair was selling home computer kits that allowed consumers to build and program their own personal computers. A new comedy show called “Saturday Night Live” debuted on NBC. Richard Stenner, circa 1980 Meanwhile in Greeley, Colorado, Weld County General Hospital administrator Richard Stenner was formulating a plan that continues to have a significant impact on local healthcare philanthropy over forty years later. In 1974, Stenner showed amazing foresight when he charged associate administrator Wendell Fuller with the task of organizing a volunteer committee to examine the potential for forming a philanthropic support group that would allow Weld County residents to support their local hospital. Stenner’s prescient rationale for developing an independent, nonprofit fundraising organization was that people were unlikely to donate money to a county governmental entity. Additionally, potential donors would be uncertain as to how their gifts might be used unless an organization separate from the county was established to make allocation and investment decisions. Simply put, a philanthropic recipient for charitable dollars, to be used to supplement the hospital’s budget, needed to be created. “I saw the hospital as a valuable community asset. At that time, Medicare and Medicaid were relatively new and uncertain government programs,” said NCMC Foundation Celebrates 40 Years of Healthcare Philanthropy . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 NCMC Foundation Celebrates 40 Years of Healthcare Philanthropy continued Stenner. “We wanted to keep our support local, and not depend on the government. The Foundation stepped in to take care of our community. Private fundraising helped provide financial support to the hospital as well as our citizens.” In February 1975, the Hospital’s Board President Kent Reitz, along with Wendell Fuller, sought approval from the Weld County Commissioners for the formation of a charitable foundation to support the work of the hospital. The commissioner’s approved the Hospital Board’s request. In August 1975, the Foundation’s first Steering Committee meeting was held. The meeting was attended by Bill Ankeney, Bud Etherton, Mildred Hansen, Ed Husted, Clark Weaver, Sylvia Webster, Patsy Zick and Wendell Fuller. On December 3, 1975 the Weld County General Hospital Foundation was formally incorporated, with Wendell Fuller serving as the first Executive Director. Mildred Hansen and Lawrence McArthur, The organization’s goal was honorary co-chairs of the Dawn of a to raise private support to New Era campaign. enhance the quality of care delivered at Weld County General Hospital.

Greeley became the second city in Colorado to be designated as a “Heart Safe City” and the program was adopted by the McKee Foundation in order to place AEDs throughout Loveland. 2014 “Cancer Institute Campaign” – The Foundation launched a $2 million fundraising campaign as part of a $10 million renovation, expansion and technological upgrade project for the North Colorado Medical Center Cancer Institute. Since its humble beginnings in 1975, the NCMC Foundation has raised an astounding $50 million in private philanthropic support for North Colorado Medical Center. Additionally, it has nearly $20 million under management, and in 2014, the Foundation granted over $1.2 million to various NCMC departments for the purchase of needed equipment, programs and scholarships. As we look to the future, the NCMC Foundation will remain true to the vision of its founding members by partnering with the hospital to ensure that physicians, nurses and clinicians have the facilities and leading-edge technology and equipment they need in order to provide excellent patient care. “Providing national class patient care is capitalintensive. A hospital can’t afford to buy all the new technologies it needs out of its operating budget,” said NCMC Foundation president Chris Kiser. “I like to think of the Foundation as providing the margin of excellence, just like Mr. Stenner envisioned in 1975.” North Colorado Medical Center Cancer Institute expansion 6 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Frank Stepp, Sr. Vice President, Thompson & Associates Your actions today will dictate how your family will be effected after you pass. A little preparation today can save the ones you love the most from needless anger, misunderstandings and stress. Here are a few thoughts that can make things easier for your heirs, just as they would have Mr. Cooke’s heirs: In life, Jack Kent Cooke was a successful business man. He built businesses and winning teams, most notably the Washington Redskins. In death however, his will created chaos. By the time he died of a heart attack in April 1997, the 84-year-old Mr. Cooke, a high-school dropout who got his start by peddling encyclopedias door to door, had amassed a $1.3 billion collection of media companies, sports teams and real estate. But he also left a convoluted will, amended eight times (some of the revisions were selfdrafted) and seven executors. Over the next 30 years the babyboomer generation will pass on some $35 trillion in assets, representing the biggest potential intergenerational wealth transfer in history. • Have your will drafted by an estate planning attorney Frank Stepp Family fighting tied the estate up for seven years, involved dozens of lawyers, $64 million in professional fees and, in the end, bound the family together despite bitter divisions. Family stress was never Mr. Cooke’s desire but his poor planning resulted in a legacy of pain and bitterness between the people he loved most. Expert economists estimate that over the next 30 years the baby-boomer generation will pass on some $35 trillion in assets, representing the biggest potential intergenerational wealth transfer in history. Your estate may be a part of that $35 trillion. • Review the will every 5 or 6 years, or after a major life change • Clearly express your wishes in the will and other memorandums • Name only one executor (preferably not a family member) • Name alternate executors or successor trustees • Dispose of personal property prior to your death You will leave a legacy. The question is what legacy will you leave? NCMC Foundation offers an estate planning service through Thompson & Associates. You can meet with Frank Stepp in the Foundation offices to review your current will or make plans for a new one. There is no obligation on your part and everything you say is held in confidence between you and Frank. Once you have finished meeting with Frank you will have peace of mind and a comprehensive estate plan recommendation that tells your story and reflects your values. You can then take those recommendations to your attorney for drafting. Frank Stepp is a certified estate planning consultant with Thompson & Associates. His services are provided free-of-charge to friends of North Colorado Medical Center Foundation. If you are interested in a free, no obligation appointment with Frank to discuss wills, trusts, or estate planning, please contact Donna Benson at 970-350-6773 or [email protected]. 8 ����������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������Does Your Will Create Peace? Show Your Love Event Raises Funds for Breast Cancer Dancers perform during the finale at the Show Your Love breast cancer benefit. The “Show Your Love” breast cancer benefit was held February 7 at the Union Colony Civic Center. This marks the 3rd annual event sponsored by The Conservatory Dance Studio and Loveland Dance Academy, with proceeds benefitting breast cancer research and support groups. Nearly 400 guests attended the event, which featured high-quality performances from regional dance artists and musicians, along with a silent auction. Linda McSwain, co-owner of The Conservatory Dance Studio and Loveland Dance Academy, described how the event was started and what it means to her. “In 2005 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. The following year was a year of surgeries, treatments and life-threatening complications. It was during this time that my dance business partners, Katie McSwain-Hiatt and Jenni Leinweber, started their first fundraisers in 2006,” she said. “Together, Katie, Jenni and I have been able to use the performing arts, and particularly dance, as a means to reach out to organizations that support those undergoing breast cancer treatment, as well as supporting organizations that work towards finding a cure. We hope “Show Your Love” will become an inspiration for others - either to become involved or to be a part of our audience.” Proceeds donated to the NCMC Foundation benefit the NCMC Cancer Institute Breast Cancer Support Group, to provide assistance to qualifying women undergoing cancer treatment at North Colorado Medical Center. This assistance provides support for patients at a time when they need it most. The “Show Your Love” breast cancer benefit is pleased to be able to donate $1,141 to the NCMC Foundation from the 2015 show. The NCMC Foundation is grateful to Linda McSwain for her partnership and support!

Talk about half full, John Haefeli’s cup is overflowing. He is, self-prescribed, the “most fortunate human being on the face of this earth.” It’s rare to see him not smiling. Haefeli is a man that doesn’t see barriers, he sees opportunities—and the rest of us benefit from that. The Haefeli’s “adopted” twins, Ashley and Nicole Larson. Delia trekking in Nepal. Whether it’s students who had him as a teacher or a coach, or fellow board members from a number of organizations around town—Chamber of Commerce, Greeley-Evans School District and Catholic Community Services, and of course the NCMC Foundation to name the most recent—everyone who knows Haefeli appreciates him. Haefeli is a native of Greeley and grew up with his brother Joseph, sister Ann and his parents Julianne and Joseph—his father was Dr. Joseph Haefeli, a respected optometrist in town. The family was well known in Greeley for their extensive community involvement. His parents played an integral part in determining Haefeli’s life path as a teacher and instilling his own desire to serve his community. “My parents legacy of giving back is really profound for me. They created a family expectation to do what was right. I remember bouncing around the back of my mom’s Rambler going from place to place while she founded Head Start in Weld County or raised money and awareness for the Guadalupe Shelter or Catholic Community Charities. She also served on the NCMC, Inc. Board for over 20 years and was a lobbyist for the American Health Association. She still inspires me,” he said. Haefeli “hangs his hat” on being a District 6 educator for 25 years. He taught social studies in middle school and high school, finishing his career at Greeley West. Currently, he serves as an adjunct faculty member at University of Northern Colorado’s School of Teacher Education, a position he has held for four years. Haefeli attended both Colorado State University and UNC. He received his undergraduate degree in history from CSU, and his master’s in education administration from UNC. He played baseball at CSU and later scouted for the Chicago Cubs and coached baseball at UNC. Today, he stays active in sports by serving as an official for college basketball games at home and across the nation—something he’s done the last 37 years. He also works sports into his busy volunteer schedule. He’s the site director for the CHSAA “A” state high school basketball tournament in March at the Budweiser Center and also the “AAA” state baseball tournament in May in Greeley. Haefeli met his wife, Delia, as a fellow teacher at Maplewood Middle School in 1991. They married in 1993. Delia is currently a math teacher as well as a cross-country and basketball coach at Winograd K-8. She grew up in Kremmling, Colorado. John officiating basketball game at University of Denver. The two are “very comfortable in the outdoors” and enjoy hiking and fly-fishing together. Even though they never had children of their own, the couple became “parents at 52.” They “adopted” two former Greeley West students who were on their own after high school. “We have surrogate twins—Ashley and Nicole—who we became very close with when they were freshman in high school. They come to us for moral support. We are a harbor in the storm and a warm home and meal,” he said. Haefeli joined the NCMC Foundation Board in 2011. He sees the Foundation as committed not only to bettering the hospital, but to improving the whole of Greeley. “I believe the only way we can move from good to great in our community is to make our institutions stronger,” he concluded. 12������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������ Board Member Profile 26th Annual NCMC Foundation Gala Sets Attendance and Fundraising Record The 26th Annual North Colorado Medical Center Foundation Gala, presented by Noble Energy, netted a record $230,000 for the North Colorado Medical Center Cancer Institute on January 31st. Over 725 guests turned out for the “The Great Gatsby” themed black tie affair held at the Embassy Suites in Loveland. Long time NCMC Foundation Board Member and community leader, Masoud Shirazi was honored with the Foundation Legacy Award, presented annually to an outstanding individual or organization for their distinguished service and commitment to improving healthcare in our region. “The annual NCMC Foundation Gala isn’t your typical black tie fundraising dinner,” said Diana Wood, NCMC Foundation Director of Special Events and Marketing. “It’s truly a unique event, which has evolved into one of the largest special events in our region. It’s a memorable evening as we raise money for the NCMC Cancer Institute, honor the Foundation Legacy Award recipient, and celebrate the excellence of NCMC and Banner Health.” Proceeds from the 2015 Gala are directed towards technology upgrades and expansion of the NCMC Cancer Institute, with a $10 million renovation that began in the fall of 2014. The NCMC Foundation has launched a capital campaign to raise philanthropic support for the Cancer Institute, which will provide the latest in cancer treatment technology to patients at NCMC. Guests were treated to 1920’s gourmet cuisine and specialty drinks; the opportunity to bid on nearly 100 one-of-a-kind silent auction items including suite seats at premiere sporting events, artwork, spa packages and much more. The evening also featured Greeley Unexpected artist Armando Silva, who painted and auctioned an original art piece while onlookers watched his performance during dinner. Entertainment highlights of 2015 NCMC Foundation Legacy Award Honoree “The Great Gatsby” featuring Masoud Shirazi and wife, Vonda The Cotton Club Review included a stilt walker, Erte models, aerial lyra, tap, a Cab Calloway number and other performances reminiscent of the Roaring 1920’s.

It’s estimated that 80,000,000 American adults (1 in 3) have one or more types of cardiovascular disease. Approximately every 25 seconds, a person will suffer a cardiac event; approximately every minute someone will die from one. There are 195,000 silent heart attacks each year and the estimated average number of years of life lost to a heart attack is 15 years. According to the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is the third leading cause of death in the United States and also causes long-term disability. The number of people who have COPD is on the rise with more than 12 million who are currently diagnosed. It’s estimated another 12 million may have COPD and not realize it. Lung disease affects more than just the lungs, but the entire body. The brain, heart, muscles and all organs are affected by less oxygen.
