Every second Tuesday of the month, Moonflower Co-op donates 5% of the day’s proceeds to an organization doing important work in our community. This month’s beneficiary is the Moab Healthcare Foundation, which is raising funds for first responders to support Grand County Emergency Medical Services (GCEMS) and Grand County Search and Rescue (GCSAR). Join us in supporting this important nonprofit and these vital local emergency services by shopping at Moonflower on Tuesday, April 8th!
The Moab Healthcare Foundation is dedicated to supporting local healthcare organizations that provide exceptional care for the residents of the Moab region.
Healthcare that promotes optimum wellness for residents and visitors of our thriving, world-class outdoor destination takes resources. The Moab Healthcare Foundation was created to support healthcare services through securing donations and grants for:
- Moab Regional Hospital
- Canyonlands Care Center
- Grand County Hospice
- Moab Free Health Clinic
- Grand County Emergency Medical Services
- Grand County Search and Rescue
- Fuel Cards for Cancer Patients
We are working to raise funds for our first responders at EMS and Search and Rescue. This will support necessary staffing, training, certifications, equipment, and supplies for those who respond to emergencies, provide necessary medical treatment, and perform lifesaving rescue missions.
GCEMS and GCSAR responds to emergency calls for Grand County’s 9,800 residents and its 3 million annual visitors. The response area covers over 3,700 square miles which includes almost 6,000 miles of roads and trails, including Arches National Park, Canyonlands National Park, Dead Horse Point State Park, and other public lands.
The Grand County area has been witness to 4 major flooding events in the past 2 years, including extensive search and rescue missions. We want to ensure that these teams are prepared and able to respond to a variety of calls including swiftwater, winter backcountry, high ropes, deep canyons, and more!
