The mission of Redlands Community Hospital Foundation is to advance the delivery of exceptional healthcare in the Inland Empire through the acquisition, management and utilization of philanthropic funds for Redlands Community Hospital. As the fundraising arm of Redlands Community Hospital, the Foundation recently completed a capital campaign for the Emergency Department, raising more than $6.5M in support of the expansion.
Meredith is the 1st Vice President/Fiduciary Banking Manager at Pacific Premier Bank in Redlands. She has served on the Foundation Board for eight years and is also a member of the hospital auxiliary.
Jan Opdyke, president of the Redlands Community Hospital Foundation says of Meredith’s election, “We are grateful for Kathy’s commitment to the hospital and are thrilled that she will take on this new role. Kathy’s sense of community makes her a perfect match for the Foundation in the coming year.”
Kathy Meredith resides in Redlands, California.
